NETWARE 2.2 SERVER INSTALLATION NOTES:
FOR THE INTEL EtherExpress(tm) 16 FAMILY OF NETWORK ADAPTERS
============================================================

  This document applies to the EtherExpress(tm) 16, 16 TP, MCA, and
  MCA TP.  It contains installation notes for installing the driver.
  It does not explain how to configure an EtherExpress board.  For
  instructions about configuring the board, see either the Expert's
  Guide or the Complete Guide for your board.

  NOTE: This document or an updated version (if the procedure 
        changed since this was written) is available on FaxBACK. 
        Document # 6312.


INTRODUCTION:
-------------

  To setup a Novell NetWare 2.2 server, you "tell" NetWare what
  hardware you have in the server and the configuration settings of
  that hardware.  You then install User Services and make them
  available to your users.

  You can install NetWare from the netork or from the NetWare diskettes.
  This document assumes you are installing Novell NetWare 2.2 from
  diskettes.

  For complete information on setting up a server, see the Novell
  NetWare documentation.

  
PROCEDURE:
----------

  1.  Run INSTALL from a backup copy of the Novell NetWare System-1
      disk.  When asked which installation method you want (Basic or
      Advanced), choose ADVANCED.

      NOTE: The original Novell NetWare diskettes are write protected.
            Follow Novell's instructions for making writeable backups 
            before you run Novell's INSTALL program.

  2.  A few screens into the program you will be asked to setup your
      network adapter and your disk controller.  Highlight NETWORK
      BOARD A and press Enter.  A list of available adapters will
      appear.  Press the Insert key and you will be asked to insert a
      disk into a drive.  Insert the Intel EtherExpress diskette in a
      drive and press Enter.

  3.  After a few seconds three versions of the EtherExpress driver
      will be added to the list of available drivers.

        Intel EtherExpress 16 Driver          ver#  date
        Intel EtherExpress 16 Driver  w/AT 1  ver#  date
        Intel EtherExpress 16 Driver  w/AT 2  ver#  date

      The first driver (no notation before the version number) is a
      standard NetWare 286 server driver, but contains no AppleTalk
      support.  The next driver (w/AT 1) includes support for AppleTalk
      phase 1, and the last driver (w/AT 2) includes support for
      AppleTalk phase 2.  

      Select the appropriate driver and press Enter.  (If you are not
      sure which version of AppleTalk you are running, see your Novell
      documentation.)

  4.  You should now be at the Network Adapter and Disk Controller
      screen again.

      Select CONFIGURATION OPTION and you will see the following list:

        option 0    IOAddress 300
        option 1    IOAddress 310
        option 2    IOAddress 320
        option 3    IOAddress 220
        option 4    Driver configurable by the Jumpers utility

      Select the I/O Address you specified and press Enter.  (The I/O
      address is setup in SOFTSET for the EtherExpress 16 and the
      System Configuration program for the EtherExpress MCA.)

      If the I/O Address you selected is not in this list, select
      option 4 (Driver configurable by the Jumpers utility).  After you
      complete the INSTALL program, you will need to run the Novell
      Jumpers utility and update the I/O Address selection for the
      EtherExpress board.

  5.  Now you can setup the network address and disk controller as
      specified in Novell's documentation.

  6.  Next you will be asked to swap a several disks.  When asked to
      insert the LAN_DRV_453 disk, put the Intel EtherExpress disk in
      drive A.  This will copy the needed files to the correct
      location.

      NOTE: If you are using a backup copy of the EtherExpress disk,
            the volume label must be LAN_DRV_453.

  Continue with the installation procedure as directed in the Novell
  documentation.


NETWARE 2.1X:
-------------

  NetWare version 2.1x uses a program called NETGEN to setup and
  configure the server.  See Novell's documentation for information
  about running NETGEN.  The options for the EtherExpress board will be
  the same as in the NetWare 2.2 installation.
