How to prevent the Swat stub from intercepting NMI.



Q. In our device the power driver wants to intercept NMI (INT 2).
   If I boot the device without the swat stub, it works fine. If I boot
   it with "swat /s ...", attach Swat host, and continue, it works
   fine too. But if I boot it with "swat ..." (without /s) and attach
   Swat host later, NMI is now hooked up to the Swat stub instead of the
   power driver. It looks like somehow the stub steals the vector from
   the power driver.

   How can I prevent the stub from intercepting INT 2?

A. Try using the /a or /i:2 switches. They should do what you want.
