Overview
PCI-SIU2 will support Novell NetWare 386 v3.1x, v4.1x, or v5.0 with the addi-
tion of a software driver. The installation procedure described here requires
some experience in Novell system setup and administration. The device driver
is transferred from the PCI-SIU2 DRIVER DISK 1 to the hard drive where it is
automatically initialized during the system boot routine. The device drivers listed
can support NetWare versions described after the ASUS file name:
\NETWARE\HAM\INIA100.HAM
HAM device driver
\NETWARE\HAM\INIA100.DDI
HAM device driver installation file
Installation
The drivers developed by ASUS for NetWare will be installed on the disk drive
used for NetWare system initialization. It is strongly recommended that the
selected procedure be read and understood before continuing with the system
configuration or change. Please read the instructions carefully.
The ReadMe File
The Novell Netware ReadMe.txt file on the PCI-SIU2 DRIVER DISK 1
contains important updated information and corrections to this chapter. The
successful installation of the ASUS driver will likely depend on the instruc-
tions given on the ReadMe text file.
New IntraNetWare Installation
Drivers for the ASUS host adapter may be found on PCI-SIU2 DRIVER
DISK 1. In most cases you will load the drivers during a new installation of
NetWare from CD-ROM. The driver is loaded during the NetWare Server
Installation procedure. The NetWare installation program will prompt you for
the required parameters as the installation procedure progresses. It is highly
recommended that you have a copy of the Novell NetWare Installation and
Upgrade Manual for reference.
