COMPAQ CONFIDENTIAL - NEED TO KNOW REQUIRED
Compaq SmartStart Installation
If you use SmartStart to install the OS, the drivers are installed automatically.
Manual Installation
If you choose to configure the server without SmartStart, follow this procedure:
1.
Insert the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD into the
CD-ROM drive.
2.
Boot your system.
3.
Select Manual Installation.
4.
Follow the instructions provided by the operating system that you are
installing.
Special Considerations
If you are running NetWare 3.2 there may be additional patches required.
The most current patches are available from Novell at their support web
site http:// support.novell.com, under Updates, Since 3.2 Enhancement
Pack Release. If you are running intraNetWare or NetWare 4.11 the most
current Support Packs are available from Novell at their support web site
http:// support.novell.com, under intraNetWare, NetWare 4.11. Please run
README.COM on any of the Support Software for Novell Products
(NSSD) diskettes for more detailed driver installation instructions.
NSSD v3.22 or newer provides support for the Compaq ProLiant 1850R
server..
If you are running intraNetWare, Compaq recommends that you use
LAN adapter drivers that have been upgraded to the latest Novell
specification (ODI 3.3 compliant). These drivers can be found on the
NSSD diskette #3, version 3.22 or newer. The LAN adapter drivers are
located in the \NETWORK sub-directory. For example, if you want to
load the driver for the Compaq NetFlex-3/P family of adapters, then
from the NetWare console you would type:
LOAD A:\NETWORK\CPQNF3.LAN
If using the Compaq Integrated Netelligent 10/100 TX Controller on a
ProLiant 1850R server and you do not plan to use the SmartStart
installation process to setup your server, you must install updated support
software for your controller to connect properly to the network, refer to
Appendix G, “Updating LAN Drivers” for instructions.
