                c. Windows 95 CD-ROM.


F. Parameter Description for STE100.LAN

        The following parameters are used in STE100.LAN.

    1. SLOT:     specifies which adapter is enabled when multiple STE100 adapters
                 are found in your computer.

                 Ex: LOAD STE100 SLOT=1 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2
                     LOAD STE100 SLOT=1 FRAME=ETHERNET_II

    2. FRAME   : specifies which frame type is used by the driver.  Accepted
                 values are Ethernet_802.2, Ethernet_802.3, Ethernet_II and
                 Ethernet_SNAP.  Multiple frame types can be enabled by the
                 driver by loading the same driver with different FRAME types.

                  Ex: LOAD STE100 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2
                      LOAD STE100 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3
                      LOAD STE100 FRAME=ETHERNET_II
                      LOAD STE100 FRAME=ETHERNET_SNAP

    3. NODE    : Use a different address to replace the node address burned
                 in EEPROM.

                  Ex: LOAD STE100 NODE=0200E8001122

G. NetWare OS2 ODI Workstation Driver Installation
==================================================
This section describes the procedure to install
the NetWare OS/2 ODI workstation driver for your adapter.

You can use the following methods to install the driver.

G.1 Install method

Requirements:
-------------
      STMicroelectronics STE10/100 Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter Driver Diskette (STE100.SYS)
      Driver Location: \NetWare\ODI\OS2ODI

Installation Procedure:
-----------------------
1  Run INSTALL utility for Netware OS/2 requester and follow its
   instructions.

2. Assign STE100.SYS as the network interface driver name and specify
   the path as A:\NETWARE\ODI\OS2ODI.

3. Insert STMicroelectronics STE10/100 Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter
   Diskette into driver A. Then wait for file copy completion.

4. Choose the session support you need.  For more information, please
   see Netware OS/2 Requester Manual.

5. Save configuration.

6. Run CONFIGURATION UTILITY and select "THIS WORKSTATION" to modify the
   NET.CFG file. (This file is located in the root directoy of OS/2 system,
   you can use any text editor to modify it.)

7. Shutdown and restart the machine.


NOTE: If your OS/2 version is 2.0 or later, you must have the Netware OS/2
      Requester version 2.01 or later.

G.2 Manual method

 PREREQUISITES:  You will need the following diskettes:
      STMicroelectronics STE10/100 Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter Driver Diskette  (STE100.SYS)
      Driver Location: \NetWare\ODI\OS2ODI

    Novell NetWare OS/2 WORKSTATION SERVICES REQUESTER diskette
    Novell NetWare OS/2 WORKSTATION OS/2 Utility - 1
    Novell NetWare OS/2 WORKSTATION OS/2 Utility - 2
    Novell NetWare OS/2 WORKSTATION OS/2 Utility - 3


 2. Make sure that the computer is at least a 286 or 386 machine that will run
    OS/2 or Extended Edition OS/2.


 3. Install the OS/2 Requester, referring to Novell's documentation for
    NetWare Requester for OS/2 installation.


 4. Copy the \NetWare\ODI\OS2ODI\STE100.SYS file from the support disk
    into the NETWARE subdirectory on your hard disk.


 5. Add or replace the PCIMLID.SYS command line in the CONFIG.SYS file.
    Make sure it precedes the IPX.SYS command line.  An example:

       DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\LSL.SYS          ; OS/2 Requester supported
       DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\DDAEMON.SYS      ; OS/2 Requester supported
       DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\STE100.SYS        ; STMicroelectronics STE100 supported
       DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\IPX.SYS          ; OS/2 Requester supported


 6. Reboot the computer and log onto your network.



 -----------------
 INSTALLATION NOTE
 -----------------

 You can bind several frame types to the IPX protocol to support various
 configurations -- in the Link Driver STE100 section of the NET.CFG
 file.

 SAMPLE:

    Link Driver STE100

    frame Ethernet_802.3
