B. NetWare 5.X New Installations

1. Begin the file server installation according to the instructions in the file

server installation chapter in the Novell NetWare Installation Manual.

2. When the NetWare installation procedure prompts you a Device type screen,

press Modify to add a Storage adapters: (Default only IDEATA available).
Press INS for adding a new driver. Please put the ADAPTEC driver for
NetWare diskette into drive A: Then use the INS key to select an unlisted
driver. A dialog box appears. If the driver diskette is in the A: drive, press
Enter to continue. The ADPT160M.HAM drivers appear as a selection.

3. Highlight Disk and CD-ROM Drivers (e.g., IDEATA). Press Enter and

load an additional driver. Then press the INS key. The system always defaults
to the A: path. Highlight the HAM driver and press Enter. Select Yes to
save and move the driver into the operating system. Press Enter, the system
will copy the files.

4. Load a separate instance of the driver for every ADAPTEC controller SCSI

channel or host adapter present in the system.

5. When prompted for a slot number, accept the slot numbers displayed. Make

sure to write these slot numbers down for future reference.

6. When asked to edit the STARTUP.NCF file, make sure the

ADPT160M.HAM is loaded once for each ADAPTEC SCSI controller
channel present in the system. Add the statement SLOT= to
each load line in the STARTUP.NCF, by specifying the slot numbers written
down in step 5 above, with only one slot number per load instance. The
HAM driver(s) are loaded for each ADAPTEC SCSI controller channel
from the first LOAD statement to the last LOAD statement.
