INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING NETWORK DRIVERS

Automatic Installation With EZStart

Use EZStart's “Automatic Novell DOS ODI” feature when you require greater customization than offered by EZdosodi (for example, if you wish to specify a server name or a specific Ethernet frame type). You will have the choice of modifying your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files. If you choose this option, the workstation will automatically attach to the server upon reboot.

Custom Installation With EZStart

For a basic NetWare Client installation which will copy the client files and the SMC driver to your hard drive, use EZStart's “Custom Setup” procedure.

1.Switch to the drive containing the SuperDisk, type “EZSTART,” and press “Enter.” You will be presented with the main screen.

2.From the main screen, select “Custom.”

3.From the “Custom Installation” screen, select “Drivers/ Documents.”

4.From the “Driver Installation” screen, select “Automatic Novell DOS ODI” (customization capability) or “Novell” (will not modify AUTOEXEC.BAT or attach to a server upon reboot, providing a greater capability to customize). After selecting “Novell,” select “Novell NetWare DOS Client (DOS ODI).”

5.Select “Copy Files” to copy all the files used by this driver from the SuperDisk to the destination directory recommended by EZStart, or to a different directory that you specify.

6.Edit the NET.CFG file and check that the first frame type specified is the same as that used by the server. Note that there is no need to specify PCI slot number or Interrupt number.

7.Reboot your workstation. The DOS ODI driver will automatically load each time you reboot if you have modified your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to call STARTNET.BAT.
