STANDARD MICROSYSTEMS CORPORATION Novell NetWare Lite v1.1 ODI Driver For Ethernet LAN Adapters INSTALLATION GUIDE This software is licensed by SMC for use by its customers only. Copyright (c) 1993 Standard Microsystems Corporation. All rights reserved. This installation guide describes: o How to use EZStart to copy the Novell NetWare Lite version 1.1 ODI driver from the SuperDisk to your PC and install the driver. o How to install the driver. o Error messages. Note: This driver supports all 8216 (Ultra), 80xx (Elite), and 80xx (PLUS) Series ISA and Micro Channel Ethernet adapters. COPYING THE DRIVER FILES From the EZStart Driver Installation screen, select 'Copy Files' to copy all the files used by this driver from the SuperDisk to the Destination Directory recommended by EZStart, or to a different directory that you specify. The EZStart default for copying files is a:\, as the Destination Directory. Please make a backup copy of your SuperDisk before EZStart copies files to the SuperDisk to configure it as a "LAN Drivers Diskette". INSTALLING THE DRIVER FILES 1. Follow the installation instructions for installing NetWare Lite. 2. When prompted for a network interface card, select "Other". 3. When prompted for the "LAN Drivers Diskette", insert the SuperDisk. 4. Select "SMC8000.COM". 5. Follow the remaining Novell instructions to complete the installation. ERROR MESSAGES "Could not find a SMC Ethernet adapter" The driver was unable to find an SMC Ethernet LAN adapter installed in the system. Check for adapter conflicts and retry the installation. Check that the adapter is seated properly in the adapter slot. "This Adapter must be configured in NET.CFG" This message will appear if you install two adapters in your system. In this case, you will need to add the adapter configuration for each adapter in a 'NET.CFG' file. Refer to the above information on installing multiple adapters. "Adapter hardware failure detected (initialization)" The adapter did not pass the initialization process. Check the adapter for configuration conflicts. "Adapter hardware failure detected (self-test)" The adapter did not pass the initialization self-test process due to a hardware problem. Check the adapter for configuration conflicts. "Other system RAM already occupies adapter RAM" The driver has detected that the adapter RAM conflicts with other RAM in the system. Reconfigure the adapter to use a different RAM address and retry the installation. "Other system ROM already occupies adapter RAM" The driver has detected that the adapter RAM conflicts with ROM in the system. Reconfigure the adapter to use a different RAM address and retry the installation. "Adapter IRQ higher than 7 not valid in 8-bit slot" The IRQ number specified cannot be used if the adapter is inserted into an 8-bit slot. Select a different IRQ number. "I/O base address chosen for driver not valid (illegal boundary)" The I/O base address specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it does not start on supported address start boundary. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "I/O base address chosen for driver not valid (out of range)" The I/O base address specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it is not within supported address range settings of the adapter. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "IRQ chosen for driver does not match adapter configuration" The IRQ setting specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it does not match the adapter soft-configuration or jumper setting found during initialization. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "Adapter IRQ higher than 7 not valid in 8-bit slot" The IRQ setting specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it is not valid for an adapter installed in an 8-bit slot. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "IRQ chosen for adapter not valid (out of range)" The IRQ setting specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it is not within the support IRQ settings of the adapter. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "Cannot access adapter RAM properly" The adapter could read or write the adapter RAM. Verify that another adapter does not share the same memory space as the LAN adapter. "Adapter RAM base address on illegal boundary" The RAM base address setting specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it does not start on supported RAM address start boundary. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "RAM base address chosen for driver not valid (out of range)" The RAM base address setting specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it does not start on supported RAM address start boundary. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "RAM size chosen for driver not valid (out of range)" The RAM base address setting specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it is not within the support RAM base address settings of the adapter. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "RAM base address chosen for driver does not match adapter configuration" The RAM base address setting specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it does not match the adapter soft- configuration or jumper setting found during initialization. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "RAM size chosen for driver does not match adapter configuration" The RAM size setting specified in the NET.CFG file cannot be used because it does not match the adapter RAM size found during initialization. Change the setting in the NET.CFG file to a supported adapter setting. "Configuration corrupted; run software setup" The driver failed to initialize the adapter due to invalid data in configuration EEROM. Run the software setup utility and reconfigure the adapter.
