Making Floppy Disks for NetWare and Windows
Installation
You need to use a floppy disk to install the LAN drivers. Use the
MAKEDISK.BAT utility located in the \LAN\I8255X\MAKEDISK
directory on the CD.
MAKEDISK [operating system] [destination]
where [operating system] is the OS for which you are creating the
diskette, and [destination] is the drive letter and path (such
as A:). If no destination is specified, the A: drive will be used.
The possible [operating system] options are:
NT = Microsoft Windows NT
W2K = Microsoft Windows* 2000
W9X = Microsoft Windows* 95 and Windows 98
NW = Novell NetWare servers and clients
DOS = Microsoft DOS and IBM OS2
Make sure you have a 1.44 MB formatted, non-bootable diskette in the
floppy drive when using this utility.
NOTE: The utility MUST be run from the \LAN\I8255X \MAKEDISK
directory.
Alternately, you can use the following .BAT files (located
in the root directory on this CD) to simplify this process:
MAKEW9X.BAT -- Creates a drivers disk for Windows 95 and
Windows 98.
MAKENT.BAT -- Creates a drivers disk for Windows NT.
MAKEW2K.BAT -- Creates a drivers disk for Windows 2000.
MAKENW.BAT -- Creates a drivers disk for Novell NetWare
servers and clients.
