The Equity
II+ (10
MHz) is approved as a Novell file server,
with the following limitations:
- The
II+
does not function correctly as a file server with the
3Com 3C505(2012) network card.
- The
II+
does not function as a file server at
10
MHz with the
Novell DCB; however, it does function correctly with the DCB
at 8 MHz.
- The
II+
does not function with the IBM CLUSTER board.
- The
II+
does not function correctly with the GENBIOS (ND286)
and GENBIOS (86) drivers.
- The Novell
NIC
and
INIC
shells will often not function in
machines running faster than 8 MHz; because of that, the
II+
will not run as a workstation at 10 MHz with the
INIC
(non-interrupt) shell driver.
It
will function correctly at
8
MHz.
- The typematic feature of the
II+
is slow when running Advanced
NetWare ND286; however, all other keyboard input functions
correctly.
