3Com's auto installation software (AutoLink) automatically configures your adapter and workstation for use as a NetWare client. To use AutoLink:

*Have only one 3Com Bus Master adapter installed

*Use NetWare v2.X, v3.1X, or v4.X as your network operating system

*Have DOS on the client being installed

AutoLink edits your AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files and saves the old versions. Select General Information/Release Notes in the main menu for information on AutoLink server support. To manually set up your adapter or for information/drivers for other NOSs, use the options under Standard

Installation and Configuration in the main menu. This option will install a complete DOS ODI client.
