Novell NetWare 5.0 Server

If Novell NetWare is not installed on your machine, use the following instructions. If it is installed, follow the instructions in “Server driver installation in existing NetWare 5.0 Server” on page 17.

Server driver installation during NetWare 5.0 Server installation

Installation of the network board and its device driver occurs during the combined storage device and network board installation step. Use the following instructions to install the network board and its driver during a new NetWare 5.0 Server installation.

1.Create a device driver installation diskette containing the extracted files from the NETWAREP.EXE package file on the adapter CD-ROM.

2.Select a storage device and a network board: v Select and configure the storage device.

Storage devices such as hard disks, CD-ROMs, and tape devices require a software driver to communicate with the storage adapter. The software driver for the storage device is called a custom device module (CDM). Each type of storage device requires a CDM.

The installation program auto-detects many types of storage devices such as IDE drives, SCSI drives, CD-ROM drives, and tape drives. If your storage device is not detected, choose the appropriate driver from the list of available drivers provided with NetWare 5 or add a new driver from a diskette. CDMs can be obtained from the storage device manufacturer.

vSelect and configure the network board.

The software driver for a network board is called a LAN driver. The installation program auto-detects many types of network boards. If your network board is not detected, choose the driver for the network board from the list provided with NetWare 5 or use a new or updated driver from the diskette that you created in step 1.

The network board must be installed and configured correctly. For servers, it is recommended that DATARATE be set to M16 or M4, and clients be set to Auto. You might be able to influence certain network board properties by configuring the system and the network board or both.

vLoad a NetWare Loadable Module TM program, if required.

Certain server and network configurations might require you to load a NetWare Loadable Module (NLM) before you can complete the server installation. An example is loading ROUTE.NLM for a token-ring environment that requires it.
