file to install the driver automatically when your system starts.

installed NetWare system.
1. Insert the IBM FAStT Host Adapter device drivers for NetWare diskette that you
created in Chapter 4 in the diskette drive.
2. Copy the QL2200.HAM device driver file from the diskette to the server root
directory. For example, type:
copy a:\NETWARE\QL22.HAM c:\NWSERVER\
Where a is the diskette drive letter and c is the root directory.
3. If you are installing the driver from a CD-ROM, type:
copy z:\NW51\22\NETWARE\QL22.HAM c:\NWSERVER\
Where z is the CD-ROM drive letter and c is the root directory.
