- Method B: Use the driver shipped on this CD-ROM directly with your
network operating system's installation software. Note the
directory containing the driver (see Table 1).
- Method C: Get the driver from a software package shipped on this
CD-ROM. Point your Web browser to
x:\web\essmain.htm (where x is your CD-ROM
drive). Select your adapter from the section CD-ROM - release date
information. Select Downloads and choose the
appropriate software package for your environment. Execute the package
to expand the files. The driver will be in the directory listed in Table 1.

Storage devices such as hard disks, CD-ROMs, and tape devices require a
software driver to communicate with the storage adapter. The software
driver for the storage device is called a custom device module (CDM).
Each type of storage device requires a CDM.
The installation program auto-detects many types of storage devices such as
IDE drives, SCSI drives, CD-ROM drives, and tape drives. If your
storage device is not detected, choose the appropriate driver from the list of
available drivers provided with NetWare 5 or add a new driver from a
diskette. CDMs can be obtained from the storage device
manufacturer.
- Select a Network Board.
The software driver for a network board is called a LAN driver.
The installation program auto-detects many types of network boards.
If your network board is not detected, choose the driver for the network board
from the list provided with NetWare 5 or use a new or updated driver from the
diskette that you created in step 1.
The network board must be installed and configured correctly. For
servers, it is recommended that DATARATE be set to M16 or M4, and clients be
set to Auto. If your network is operating at 100 Mbps, this parameter
is ignored. You might be able to influence certain network board
properties by configuring the system and the network board or both.
- Load a NetWare Loadable Module (if required).
Certain server and network configurations might require you to load a
NetWare Loadable Module (NLM) before you can complete the server
installation. An example is loading ROUTE.NLM for a Token-Ring
environment that requires it.
The following procedure explains how to use NWCONFIG to load a LAN
