Preparing to Install or Upgrade the NetWare Client Software

Setting Up for Installation from a Network Directory

 

The volume and directory are SYS:PUBLIC\CLIENT\DOSWIN for DOS

 

and MS Windows.

 

The following procedure shows you how to map a drive to the appropriate

 

volume and directory.

 

Procedure

 

1 Map the next network drive to SYS:PUBLIC by typing

 

MAP N SYS:PUBLIC <Enter>

 

 

NOTE:

This mapping might already be set up as a search drive in a login script for your client

 

workstation. Use the MAP utility to view a list of existing drive mappings. If a drive

 

mapping already exists for the SYS:PUBLIC directory, then proceed to Step 2.

 

2 Change to the network drive that is mapped to the PUBLIC subdirectory.

 

 

For example, if you mapped network drive G:, type

 

G: <Enter>

 

3 Change to the CLIENT\DOSWIN directory under SYS:PUBLIC for the client

 

files by typing

 

CD CLIENT\DOSWIN <Enter>

 

4 Either continue preparing the installation program or begin installing the client

 

software by going to one of the following sections:

 

• To modify the installation configuration file for your particular setup, see

 

“Editing the INSTALL.CFG File” for more information.

 

• To use the NetWare Client installation program, see Chapter 5, “Installing or

 

Upgrading NetWare Client Software,” for more information.
