Install Netware v3.12

Installing the AHA-2940U2W as the Primary Host Adapter and NetWare 3.12 for the first time.
 
  1. Create the DOS partition and/or install DOS from the Setup diskette.
  2. If using a SCSI CD-ROM connected to a Adaptec SCSI adapter, insert EZ-SCSI for DOS/Windows 3.1 in drive A.
    Type A:\DOSINST
    (Note: If you do not have EZSCSI, download the file DOSDRVR.EXE from www.adaptec.com and follow the readme to install the drivers for CD ROM access)
  3. Install the software. You need a DOS version of MSCDEX.EXE and will be prompted to install the file if it is not in your DOS directory.
  4. If installing from an IDE based CD-ROM, consult your vendor documentation for driver install.
  5. Reboot your system after install.
  6. Start the NetWare 3.12 installation from the CD. (i.e., D:\netware.312\english\install [or whatever letter MSCDEX assigns to your CD-ROM])
  7. After NetWare installs the DOS portion of the software, move DOWN and EXIT to DOS from the server prompt.
  8. Copy the AIC78U2.HAM and AIC78U2.DDI from the 7800 Family Manager Set Lite NetWare directory to the C:\server.312 directory.
  9. Obtain the NWPA_UP.EXE patch from the Novell Web site http://developer.novell.com/devres/sas/certinfo.htm
  10. Change directory to c:\server.312, and copy the patch file NWPA_UP.EXE to the directory.
  11. Execute NWPA_UP.EXE (Note: this will create another file, 312PTD.EXE. Answer 'Y' to the prompt to overwrite CDROM.NLM.)
  12. Execute 312PTD.EXE.
  13. Create the directory c:\server.312\CDSAVE
  14. Copy CDROM.NLM to c:\server.312\CDSAVE
  15. Update the server with the following command c:\server.312\312PTD\native\loader\lswapc:\server.312\ 312PTD\native\loader\loader.exec:\server.312\server.exe
  16. Type Server from the prompt. Type the server name and IPX address
  17. From the console prompt
    load c:\server.312\312PTD\native\start\npapatch
    load mmattrfx
    load nbi31x
    load c:\server.312\AIC78U2
  18. Note the slot number detected for the AIC78U2W adapter. This will be added to the Startup.ncf load AIC78U2 statement to automate driver load using the parameter SLOT=x (x is the detected slot number).
  19. Load Install. Create the NetWare partition, SYS volume, and mount the volume. Complete the installation of the System and Public Files.
  20. Create the Autoexec.NCF file. Add the following lines and save;
    load after311
    search add 1 c:\server.312\cdsave
    load cdrom
  21. Create the Startup.NCF file. Edit the AIC78U2 command line to add the slot=x parameter. Delete the MEM and INT parameters inserted by Novell.
  22. Load the following from the command line;
    load c:\server.312\312PTD\patch312
  23. Install the patches from the c:\server.312\312PTD directory when prompted for a path.
  24. DOWN and EXIT the server
  25. Run Server.EXE
