This version corrects a problem when using 8013 adapters in 16
bit mode with 16 bit VGA adapters in 16 bit mode. This version 
also corrects a problem which caused the Operating System to 
Abend (abnormal end) when IRQ, RAM Base, or RAM Size parameters
where entered  on the command line when using any of the following
software configurable adapters: 8003EB, 8003W, 8003EP, 8013EP, 8013W,
or 8013EW. 

-- Version 2.00 --

This is the first offical release of the NetWare 386 v3.1 
driver. It conforms to the the ODI driver specification 
for NetWare 386 version 3.1. This driver supports the 
multiple MAC protocol and network management functions of 
NetWare 386 v3.1. This driver does NOT function with NetWare
386 version 3.00.  If a driver for Netware 386 version 3.00 
is required, refer to version 1.00 of this driver.

This driver has one known problem, it will not function 
with the 8013EBT adapter when used with other 16 bit adapters 
(ie. 16-bit VGA) in 16 bit mode.  This problem will be fixed 
in the next release.
