Mylex Disk Array Controller Driver for NetWare 4.11/4.2
2-2 Disk Array Controller Software Kit User’s Manual
Similar to tape drive support, CD-ROM is also supported by the controller
for use under NetWare. The SCSICD.CDM provides support to the
CD-ROM application running on the server. A CD-ROM driver will also
have to be loaded. These are included with the Novell NetWare releases.
Mylex Disk Array Controller Driver for
NetWare 4.11/4.2
Installing the Mylex Disk Array Controller as the Primary
NetWare 4.11/4.2 Controller
If the Mylex Disk Array Controller will be the primary (bootable) controller,
you must install the controller driver at the time of NetWare 4.11/4.2
installation.
Installing NetWare 4.11/4.2 Drivers
NetWare version 4.11/4.2 is available on CD-ROM. Drivers provided in the
\DOS subdirectory of the Software Kit distribution diskette (packaged with
the Mylex Disk Array Controller are required to install NetWare 4.11/4.2
from a CD-ROM drive connected to a Mylex Disk Array Controller.
The procedure below assumes that the CD-ROM drivers are available.
1. Boot the system from a newly created DOS boot drive, and then create
(or edit) the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files to include the
drivers required for accessing the CD-ROM as a logical drive under
DOS. The following example assigns the CD-ROM as drive D: under
MS-DOS 6.00 or above. CONFIG.SYS contains the statements:
device = [pathname]\aspidac.sys
device = [pathname]\btcdrom.sys /D:[devicename]
AUTOEXEC.BAT contains the statement:
[pathname]\mscdex /v /m:10 /D:[devicename]
The device name is that of the specific CD-ROM drive
(e.g., MSCD001).
