The ODI driver program allows you to run multiple protocol
stacks and install up to two network adapters in a workstation.
This ODI driver supports the Port, Node Address, Protocol and
Frame options for creating your own NET.CFG file. For more
information on these keywords, please refer to Novell's
"NetWare ODI shell for DOS - NET.CFG options". This installation
assumes that the drivers are working properly.
Getting Started

The NOVELL Personal NetWare installation diskettes are needed to
complete this install.
1. Follow the normal installation procedure as described by
Personal NetWare.
