CAUTION:
OS/2 Warp has ATAPI CD-ROM filter driver(IBMIDECD.FLT). If problems occur
using the IBMIDECD filter, you fix lines in your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file has
to be edited as follows:

rem BASEDEV=IBMIDECD.FLT

At the end of the file, add the following statement

BASEDEV=MKEATAPI.ADD /V

and copy to root directory on the OS/2 system drive.
In this time, if the CR-ROM drive is attached as master to primary or
secondary, you should fix a line in your OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file has to be
edited as follows:

BASEDEV=IBM1S506.ADD /A:x /I

The /A parameter refers to the adapter number that the CD-ROM is attached
