A. NetWare ODI Server Driver Installation (NetWare 3.11)
========================================================

Requirements:
-------------
      NETSURF GFC2206 Driver Diskette (PCI40.LAN) 
      Driver Location: \NetWare\ODI

Installation Procedure:
-----------------------
Before you start with the installation process, make sure that
the Novell NetWare 386 v3.11 or 4.0x server is properly installed.
Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed
in your workstation.

1. Insert the NETSURF GFC2206 Driver Diskette into drive A and check the 
   contents of subdirectory  \NETWARE\ODI\3.11 and \NETWARE\ODI
   It should contain the following file :

   PCI40.LAN - Novell NetWare V4.0X, 3.11 Server Driver for NETSURF GFC2206
   GFCNW.EXE - Self-Extraction file for Novell NetWare V3.12 Patch

2. Copy the above LAN files from the NETSURF Driver Diskette
   into the NetWare 386 subdirectory of your server.

3. Run GFCNW from your server. You will see a series files files have
   been extracted from this file. (These files are lswap.exe, loader.exe,
   autoexec.ncf, ethertsm.nlm, msm31x.nlm and nbi31x.nlm)

4. Run LSWAP for your SERVER.EXE. If your Netware 386 subdirectory name
   is not "NWSERVER". Please notice the usage of the LSWAP.

   USAGE:  LSWAP [loaderFilePath [serverFilePath]]

          Default loaderFilePath = C:\NWSERVER\LOADER.EXE
          Default serverFilePath = C:\NWSERVER\SERVER.EXE

5. Run SERVER.EXE from your server.

6. When the NetWare 386 prompt appears (indicated by a colon),
   load your server driver. Simply type:

   : LOAD [d:]PCI40
   SLOT=1 [1..8]
   TP [AUI,BNC,AUTODETECT,TP_FULL_DUPLEX] 
   LINE_SPEED=100 [10,100]
   FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3  <Enter>

   (Command Syntax : LOAD [d:]<Driver Name> SLOT=<SLOT ID.>
                                            <MEDIUM TYPE>
                                            LINE_SPEED=<Line Speed>
                                            FRAME=<FRAME TYPE>)


7. Bind IPX to the NETSURF LAN driver. At the NetWare server
   prompt, type:

   :BIND IPX PCI40 <Enter>

8. After pressing <Enter> the computer prompts you  for
   the Network Number. For details on how to assign this
   number, please consult your NetWare 386 Installation
   Manual.

B. NetWare ODI Server Driver Installation (NetWare 3.12 )
========================================================

Requirements:
-------------
      NETSURF GFC2206 Driver Diskette (PCIODI40.LAN) 
      Driver Location: \NetWare\ODI\3.12

Installation Procedure:
-----------------------
Before you start with the installation process, make sure that
the Novell NetWare 386 v3.12 server is properly installed.
Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed
in your workstation.

1. Insert the NETSURF GFC2206 Driver Diskette into drive A and check the 
   contents of subdirectory  \NETWARE\ODI\3.12 and It should contain the 
   following file :

   PCIODI.LAN - Novell NetWare 3.12 Server Driver for NETSURF GFC2206
   GFCNW.EXE - Self-Extraction file for Novell NetWare V3.12 Patch


C. NetWare ODI Server Driver Installation (NetWare 4.1x)
=======================================================

Requirements:
-------------
      NETSURF GFC2206 Driver Diskette (GFC07.LAN)
      Driver Location: \NetWare\ODI\4.X and \LANDRV32

Installation Procedure:
-----------------------
1. Insert the NETSURF GFC2206 Driver Diskette into drive A
   and check the contents of subdirectory  \NETWARE\ODI\4.1X
   It should contain the following files:

   GFC07.LAN -   Novell NetWare V4.1X Server Driver for NETSURF GFC2206
   GFC07.LDI -   Novell NetWare V4.1X Server Driver Installation
                 Information File
   MSM.NLM
   ETHERTSM.NLM
   NBI.NLM
   AUTOEXEC.NCF

2. At the NetWare prompt (indicated by the Server name),
   run the INSTALL.NLM program by typing:

   server name: LOAD INSTALL <Enter>

3. Select "Maintenance/Selective Install" and press <Enter>.

4. Select "LAN Driver Options (Configure/Load/...)"
   and press <Enter>.

5. Press the <Ins> key to specify other drivers to install.

6. Press <F3> and specify the driver path (A:\)
   and press <Enter>.

7. The GFC07.LAN driver should appear in your choice list for
   the 'Select a LAN Driver' field. Choose this driver to
   start the driver loading and binding procedure. This
   will allow you to load and bind all 4 frame types supported
   by NetWare.

8. Next time you start up your system, simply follow steps
   2 to 4 to complete the installation.

NOTE:
 In Netware 4.X this driver must be loaded after loading:
       - NBI.NLM
       - MSM.NLM
       - ETHERTSM.NLM
 If your NetWare Server is V4.0 or V4.10. You must unload
 the ETHERTSM and MSM in your server first, then load
 ETHERTSM in \NETWARE\ODI\4.X of this release diskette.

D. NetWare DOS ODI Workstation Driver Installation
==================================================
This section describes the procedure to install
the NetWare workstation driver for your adapter.

Requirements:
-------------
      NETSURF GFC2206, Driver Diskette (PCIMLID.COM)
      Driver Location: \DOS

Installation Procedure:
-----------------------
Before you start with the installation process, make sure that
the adapter is properly installed and configured. Make sure
the your NetWare operating system is properly installed.

1. Run the following command in the order given below and
   press <Enter>:

   lsl
   pcimlid
   ipxodi
   netx (or vlm)

2. You can now log into your network.



D. Installation Notes
=====================

1. The default frame type for the PCI40.LAN binding is
   Ethernet_802.2 and not Ethernet_802.3.  This is the
   difference between V3.1X and V4.1X drivers.

   The PCI40.LAN also supports the NetWare V3.1X environment.
   However, it requires loading of some patch NLMs before loading it.

2. Remember to specify LASTDRIVE=Z in the CONFIG.SYS file.

3. Edit the NET.CFG if you want to change some parameters.

   For example, if you're using a NetWare 3.11 workstation and
   want to log into a NetWare v4.X server. The default
   frame type of NetWare 3.11 is Ethernet 802.3, while that of
   NetWare v4.X  is Ethernet 802.2. Before you can log into
   the NetWare v4.X , make sure there is a protocol binding
   for Ethernet 802.3 in the server's NET.CFG file.

   This is normally included in the [MLID] section. A sample
   NET.CFG file is given below:

   LINK DRIVER PCIMLID
        TP       ;; Medium type in used
        :
        :
