New install of NetWare 4.2, 5.0, 5.1 and 6.0
============================================
IMPORTANT: If you plan to install the OS to a RAID volume, you must first
configure the RAID volume through the XROM version of ICP RAID
Console. At system boot time, press Ctrl-G when prompted to invoke
the XROM version of ICP RAID Console.
New install of NetWare 4.20 with the SRCRX.HAM driver:
------------------------------------------------------
- create a driver diskette from the RAID Software Suite CDROM either from a
Windows workstation or by booting to the RAID Software Suite CDROM
- start the OS installation from the NetWare CD (NetWare 4.x CDs are NOT
bootable so you'll already need to have a bootable DOS partition installed on
your target hard drive and have the appropriate DOS driver for your CDROM)
- at the driver summary menu select modify drivers
- insert the driver diskette into drive A:
- press ENTER on the storage driver list
- press INS in the storage controller driver menu
- press F3 and change the path to A:\DRIVERS\4XX then press ENTER
- select the SRCRX.HAM driver
- continue the NetWare installation as normal by following the screen prompts
New install of NetWare 5.0 with the SRCRX.HAM driver:
------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT: The SRCRX.HAM driver depends on a later version of the NWPA.NLM
than was shipped on the NetWare 5.0 CD. Without the NWPA.NLM
update, the SRCRX.HAM driver will fail to load. The following
procedure will allow you to upgrade the NWPA.NLM on the fly during
OS installation.
- create a driver diskette from the RAID Software Suite CDROM either from a
Windows workstation or by booting to the RAID Software Suite CDROM
- start the OS installation from the NetWare bootable CD
- the NetWare Install will eventually load a "Welcome" screen asking you to
verify the startup directory (C:\NWSERVER)
- press Alt+F10 to exit the installation
- at the NetWare console prompt, type "down" and press ENTER (the installation
exits to the boot drive's DOS prompt)
- insert the driver diskette into the A: drive
- if your NetWare startup directory is drive C:, then run
A:\INSTALL\NWUPDATE.BAT, otherwise create a subdirectory named NWUPDATE at
the root of your boot drive and copy all the files from A:\DRIVERS\5XX to
the NWUPDATE subdirectory
- leave the NetWare 5.0 bootable CD in place, but remove the driver diskette
from drive A:
- reboot the server
- after rebooting the server, the NetWare 5.0 Install will start again
- right after the Accept the License Agreement screen, select the "Continue
with Existing Partition" option
- you may encounter a warning dialog box if you chose to install a "New
Server" that says, "Warning: A previously installed version of NetWare was
detected in C:\NWSERVER. If you choose to install a new server, all data on
the existing server will be lost.
"
- do as the message suggests and press ENTER
- continue the NetWare installation as normal by following the screen prompts
