Connect.
4. The NetWare 6.5 operating system will automatically detect the new Virtual
CD-ROM drive, mount it as an NSS volume, and display it as the media's
volume label name. A volume label name will only appear in the NetWare

drive. To show the mount status of the new drive, use the volumes

using the LOAD CDDVD command.
When the drive letter shows as mounted, the drive will be accessible through the
server's GUI and the system console.
