Description:  NetWare 3.x/4.x Server Driver for InterLan EtherBlaster
Version:      5.85
Part Number:  158-0411-00
	      149-0411-00


SECTION 1 - Overview
--------------------
The driver in this directory allows the Racal InterLan EtherBlaster adapter 
used in a file server executing NetWare 4.x.  It is implemented as a NetWare 
Loadable Module (NLM).  To use this driver in a file server executing NetWare
3.x, see the RELEASE.TXT file in the NETWARE.3 directory on this disk.

Version 5.62 was written and tested for conformance to version 3.2 of the 
Novell server driver specification (Doc #2.0, 3/94, P/N 107-000007-001).  
It supports the PCnet-ISA+ version of the EtherBlaster as well as previous 
EtherBlaster and NI6510 versions.

Version 5.70 disables the Guaranteed Access Time (GAT) mode in the Intel 
823878I System I/O (SIO) chip, which is found in some PCI/ISA PCs.  When 
enabled, this mode can cause a violation of ISA bus timing specification for 
bus master devices.  As a result, the InterLan EtherBlaster is prevented from 
accessing host memory in a timely manner.  GAT mode can be modified on the
command line to override the driver default (to turn GAT off).  The keywords 
are GAT=ON (always turns it on), GAT=OFF (always turns it off), and GAT=NONE 
(does not change the system power on default).  This version also supports 
Plug and Play.  The following Novell certifications have been obtained:
	L-2711  12/04/94  InterLan EtherBlaster T2       625-0384-00  Rev AC
	L-2712  12/04/94  InterLan EtherBlaster T2 8INT  625-0381-01  Rev AB

	L-2714  12/04/94  NI6510                         625-0104-00  Rev BF

Version 5.85 supports the XLerator series and fixes a reset timing problem.

SECTION 3 - Using this driver under NetWare 4.x
-----------------------------------------------
This section explains how to install the EtherBlaster NetWare 3.x/4.x server 
driver on a NetWare 4.x file server.  It is assumed in these instructions that 
no LAN drivers have been previously loaded.  You will need the EtherBlaster 
LANTALK diskette to complete these steps.

	1.  If you are in the process of installing NetWare 4.x, start the
	    installation and stop at the "Select a driver:" menu.  Skip to
	    Step 5.
	    
	    If NetWare 4.x has already been installed, type
		LOAD INSTALL

	2.  Select "Driver Options" under the "Installation Options" menu.

	3.  Select "Configure network drivers" under the "Driver Options"
	    menu.

	4.  Select "Load a driver" under the "Additional Driver Actions" menu.

	5.  Press the INSERT key (INS) to "Install an unlisted driver" when 
	    the "Select a driver:" menu appears.

	6.  Insert the EtherBlaster LANTALK diskette into floppy drive A.

	7.  Press the ENTER key (or press F3 to change the drive or path).
	    NetWare will automatically scan for the server driver.

	8.  Press the ENTER key to install the highlighted EtherBlaster driver
	    under the "Select a driver to install:" menu.

	9.  Follow the remaining menus to configure and load the driver.
	    AUTOEXEC.NCF will be automatically updated if the driver loads.
