CHAPTER2
DEC PATHWORKS versions 5.x or 6.x
NDIS 2.0 Driver
These instructions are based on PATHWORKS documentation for
configuration of a PC as a client workstation, using a system service
already installed on a LAN Manager server and the LAN Manager SETUP
diskette.
Prior to installing the DEC PATHWORKS client software, it is necessary
to determine the Interrupt Number for the PRO/100 CardBus adapter.
After you have installed the PRO/100 CardBus adapter, follow these steps
to determine the Interrupt Number:
1 Insert the Intel Network Drivers Disk in the floppy drive.
2 At the DOS prompt, enter
M32ATEST
3 Press Enter.
4 When the Main Menu opens, run Test.
The IRQ number will be displayed when the Test is complete.
5 Write down the IRQ number to use when you proceed with the
installation.
For example, if the IRQ=6, write down the number 6.
Now continue with the DEC PATHWORKS installation as
follows:
1 Run the Intel Installation Program from the Installation Disk.
2 Choose DEC PATHWORKS from the Select Network Operating
System screen.
3 Follow the prompts to complete the Intel segment of the installation.
4 Check the README file on your PATHWORKS SETUP disk for
requirements such as lastdrive, setver, etc. You will need 500 K of
free conventional memory and about 1 MB of extended memory to
run PATHWORKS SETUP. Be sure you have a lastdrive statement in
your CONFIG.SYS file (lastdrive=g will work in most cases).
5 Use a text editor to modify the file A:\NDIS\PI.TPL on the
PATHWORKS SETUP disk, as follows (A:\NDIS is a hidden
directory. You can access it by typing CD A:\NDIS):
Change the line (remove the semicolon)
