I.    Special Considerations
II.   Installing the LAN Server v3.0 -OS/2 LAPS Driver
III.  Changing Driver Configurations

I.  Special Considerations
==========================

From a DOS prompt, run the SETUP24 utility if necessary to 
manually view the card's configuration, or to configure the 
media or duplex mode. See manual for details. 

In PCI machines with the PCI 2 bus, the processor may cycle 
indefinitely through the bootup process if the adapter card 
is not installed but the driver is loaded.  This can happen 
if the adapter card has been removed from the computer, yet 
the driver files are loaded. Since it is not always 
possible to determine if you are running a PCI 1 vs a PCI 2 
bus on your processor,

     DO NOT LOAD A DRIVER WITHOUT AN ADAPTER CARD INSTALLED.
    
To de-install the driver, remove the driver line from the 
CONFIG.SYS file, or comment it out, and reboot.

If, after installing and loading the driver an error 
message is returned indicating that that the device could 
not be found, and you have verified that the BIOS setup 
and/or the PCI setup procedure for the slot in use is 
correct, add the following line to the AT-2450 section of 
your PROTOCOL.INI file:

    BUSTYPE = PCI1

II.  Installing the LAN Server v3.0 - OS/2 LAPS Driver
======================================================

1. Insert the "LAPS - LAN Adapter and Protocol Support" 
   diskette in the appropriate drive. Then enter "LAPS". On 
   the "Target Drive" menu, select which drive you want the 
   support files installed to. The installation program 
   will automatically copy over the files, and bring you 
   back to the main menu.

2. Choose "Install" again to copy over the ATI OS/2 NDIS 
   driver. The "Install Additional Network Drivers" menu 
   will appear and you will be prompted to supply the 
   source drive & path to the network information files 
   [.NIF files]. Insert the ATI CardAssistant diskette, and 
   type the path - "<DRIVE>:\IBMLAN.OS2". The NDIS driver 
   and NIF will be copied to the "IBMCOM\MACS" sub-
   directory. If the operation is successful, you should 
   see "Installation Complete". Then choose "OK" to 
   continue.

3. From the main menu, choose "Configure" to select the ATI 
   network adapter and the protocol your network uses. In 
   the upper left window - "Network Adapters", either 
   double-click on the ATI Adapter, or highlight it and 
   click on "Add" beneath the window. You will see your 
   selection appear in the lower left window - "Current 
   Configuration".

4. From the "Protocols" window, select  "NetBIOS" to be the 
   network communication protocol. You can select multiple 
   protocols depending on the applications you will be 
   using. Then, choose "Add" or double- click the left 
   mouse button to select the protocols you need. Then, 
   choose "OK".

5. Choose "Exit" to complete the installation. You will be 
   prompted to update the "CONFIG.SYS" file on drive C:. 
   Choose "Continue", and your CONFIG.SYS file will be 
   updated for LAN support.

6. Shut down OS/2, and reboot your computer by pressing the 
   reset button, or by turning the power switch off and on. 
   Do NOT use <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Delete>. As the system boots, 
   you should see the NDIS and protocol drivers loading. 
   You are now ready to continue installing LAN Server.

7. If this machine is to be a server, insert the "Server 
   Installation Diskette 1" in the appropriate drive, and 
   then enter "LANINST". If this machine will only be a 
   workstation, insert the "OS/2 Requester Installation 
   Diskette 1" diskette and then enter "LANINST". Assign a 
   machine name and domain when prompted, and then insert 
   the appropriate diskettes.

8. Installation is complete, and you are now ready to 
   communicate over the network. Refer to the LAN Server 
   documention to set up users and resource sharing.

To add additional adapters, protocols, or change adapters 
start an OS/2 full window.  Change to the \IBMCOM directory 
and type "install".  Select "Install" to add items and 
"Configure" for changes.
