                       Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter
              ----------------------------------------------
         Driver Installation for Novell NetWare Server version 4.1X
         ----------------------------------------------------------


  Running Auto Install from Novell NetWare
  ----------------------------------------
  The following instructions use the PCI adapter as an example.  

  1.  Boot up the Novell Server.

  2.  After booting up, execute "LOAD INSTALL".  Type:

        : load install

  3.  Select "Driver Option" and then press Enter.

  4.  Select "Configure network drivers" and then press Enter.

  5.  Select "Load a driver" and then press Enter.

  6.  Press the <Ins> key to install an unlisted driver.

  7.  Press <F3> to specify a different path, provide the path where 
      the USR79.LAN driver resides and hit Enter.

        eg. D:\NWSERVER\SERVER\NW41X

  8.  Select "USR79.LAN" to start the installation procedure.

  9.  Select "Yes" when asked if you want to copy driver USR79.LAN.

  10. Select "No" when asked if you want to save existing ETHERTSM.NLM.

  11. Select "No" when asked if you want to save existing NBI.NLM.

  12. Select "No" when asked if you want to save existing MSM.NLM.

  13. Choose the "Select/Modify driver parameters and protocols" selection
      and move the cursor to the USR79_1 parameters window to change the 
      the slot number.
      
      A slot number must be entered before the installation can proceed.
      You can make the slot number 1.  Even though the slot number may
      not be correct, the USR79.LAN driver automatically find the USR79 
      card and load the proper slot number.

      You do not have to enter any value for media and line speed or the 
      Node address.  The driver can use the default value for these
      parameters.

  14. Choose "Save parameters and load driver" to start the driver loading
      process.

  15. Hit <Enter> when a Network number is provided to bind IPX to the 
      USR79_1 adapter card (frame Ethernet_802.2).
  
  16. Hit <Enter> when a Network number is provided to bind IPX to the 
      USR79_1 adapter card (frame Ethernet_SNAP).

  17. Hit Enter when a Network number is provided to bind IPX to the 
      USR79_1 adapter card (frame Ethernet_II).

  18. Hit Enter when a Network number is provided to bind IPX to the 
      USR79_1 adapter card (frame Ethernet_802.3).

      All four supported Ethernet frames types are loaded.

  19. Select No when asked if you want to select an additional Network
      driver.

  20. Select "Return to the previous menu" in the Additional Driver Actions
      window.
  
  21. Hit <Esc> a number of times to exit to the Install main menu.  Select
      "Yes" when asked if you want to exit INSTALL.

  22. When existing to the main, the  driver is already loaded for the
      adapter card.

  Manually modifying Software on an existing NetWare 4.1X Server
  --------------------------------------------------------------
  The following instructions use the PCI adapter as an example.  
  1.  Copy the USR79.LAN file into the subdirectory of your server.
      For example:

      > COPY D:\NETWARE\SERVER\NW41X\USR79.LAN  C:\NWSERVER

  2.  Copy the following NLM files into your server directory.

      > COPY D:\NETWARE\SERVER\NW41X\NBI.NLM       C:\NWSERVER
      > COPY D:\NETWARE\SERVER\NW41X\MSM.NLM       C:\NWSERVER
      > COPY D:\NETWARE\SERVER\NW41X\ETHERTSM.NLM  C:\NWSERVER

  3.  Run SERVER.EXE on the server.

  4.  At the NetWare prompt, enter "Load Install" to edit the
      AUTOEXEC.NCF file.

      : load install
        Select <System Option>
        Select <Edit Autoexec.NCF file>

  5.  Add the following lines to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file:

        load C:\NWSERVER\NBI.NLM
        load C:\NWSERVER\MSM.NLM
        load C:\NWSERVER\ETHERTSM.NLM
  
        load C:\NWSERVER\USR79.LAN frame=Ethernet_yyyy name=USR79_1_zzz
                                       ;zzz is a unique 3-digit number
                                       ;    for every frame type loaded.
                                       ;yyyy is the Ethernet frame type.
        bind ipx USR79_1_zzz net=xxxx  ;xxxx is the network number (eg. 33)

  6.  Press the <Esc> key when done editing.  Select "Yes" to save.

  7.  Select "Exit" to exit NetWare Configuration.
       
  8.  Reboot the server system.  The driver is now installed.
