Installing NetWare

questions. Most of these can be answered by choosing the default (highlighted)
option, but in some cases specific information is required.
Note: Know your hardware before attempting this installation. You should

they can be accessed easily. For example, for SMC adapters, you should
install the files in the directory, c:\smc.
