If Novell NetWare is not installed on your machine, use the following instructions. If
it is installed, follow the instructions in “Server driver installation in existing NetWare
4.11 Server” on page 14.
Server driver installation in new NetWare 4.11 Server
Changes from the usual NetWare installation are necessary because this driver is
written to a new specification level that requires new NetWare loadable modules
(NLMs). The installation program is not aware of this, though, and these NLMs must
be loaded during installation of the server device driver and after the server
installation.
Note: A message referring to protected-mode BIOS access might appear before
installation of Novell patches. It is for information only, and can be ignored.

package file on the adapter CD-ROM.

statements (make sure that the diskette that you created in step 1 is inserted

6. Press Enter and then follow the instructions on the panel to complete the
installation of the driver. If you need to make any custom configuration
changes to the driver, do so at this time.
7. Follow the instructions in the Novell manual Create an AUTOEXEC.NCF file.In
addition to the instructions in the manual, add the following lines to the
AUTOEXEC.NCF file immediately after the IPX INTERNAL NET statement (if
necessary, replace c:\nwserver with the location of the SERVER.EXE
executable):
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\NBI.NLM
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\MSM.NLM
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\TOKENTSM.NLM
LOAD C:\NWSERVER\IBMTRPO.LAN NAME=IBMLS1 DATARATE=M16
Note: There will be existing LOAD and BIND IPX statements in the
AUTOEXEC.NCF. Delete the LOAD statement (we have replaced it with
stated LOAD C:\NWSERVER\IBMTRPO.LAN statement). Also, make
any needed modifications to the existing BIND IPX statement Refer to
the ″Bind the Protocol to the LAN Driver″ section of the Novell manual
for additional information.
See “Appendix D. Novell NetWare Server driver parameters” on page 65 for a
complete list of parameters that can be specified on the LOAD IBMTRPO
command in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
