    diskette in the floppy drive and make that the active drive.

2.  At the DOS prompt type:
     3C90XCFG [Enter]

3.  When the main menu appears, select Adapter Configuration and press
    [Enter].

4.  The Adapter Configuration screen appears with the IRQ shown in the
    Standard Options box.


Banyan VINES Installations
--------------------------
To install VINES 6.0 software on a DOS NDIS workstation, follow these
instructions.  DOS must be installed on the target workstation C: drive or
you must have a bootable DOS floppy.

1.  Use the DOS MD command to create a subdirectory called \VINES.

2.  Copy the contents of the VINES LAN S/W (DOS) Install diskette into
    the \VINES subdirectory.

3.  Copy the contents of the NDIS subdirectory on the VINES LAN S/W (DOS)
    2 of 2 diskette into the \VINES subdirectory.

4.  Copy the EL90X.DOS and the PROTOCOL.INI fragment from the NDIS2\DOS  
    subdirectory on the EtherDisk diskette to the \VINES subdirectory.

5.  Edit the PROTOCOL.INI file to read as follows:

    [PROTOCOL MANAGER]
     DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$

    [VINES_XIF]
     DRIVERNAME = NDISBAN$
     BINDINGS = EL90X

    [EL90X]
     DRIVERNAME = EL90X$
 
6.  Run the PCCONFIG.EXE program located in the \VINES subdirectory.
                                                         
7.  Select option 1, Network Card Settings.

8.  Select the NDIS Ethernet option.

9.  The NDIS Workstation screen appears. Enter the interrupt request 
    number (IRQ) you selected for the 3Com Fast EtherLink XL/
    EtherLink XL Bus Master adapter. 

10.  Edit the CONFIG.SYS file and add the following lines, substituting
     A: for C: for a floppy disk installation.
                                   
     DEVICE = C:\VINES\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\VINES
     DEVICE = C:\VINES\EL90X.DOS

11. Insert the following lines in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

     CD \VINES
     BAN
     
     BAN loads the NDISBAN drivers and reads the PCCONFIG.DB file to
     invoke changes made during the PCCONFIG stage.
