Installing Software on a Novell NetWare Server
Note:
To load the drivers automatically at server
bootup, copy the
aspitran.dsk
and
cda1000.dsk
driv-
ers to the server’s startup directory and modify the
startup.ncf
so that the proper path to the driver is
specified
.
The
aspitran.dsk
driver must reside in the same path
as
cda1000.dsk
, because NetWare attempts to load
this file automatically. If you also have an Adaptec
host adapter that uses the Adaptec
aic78xx.dsk
driver,
make sure the driver loads after the
cda1000.dsk
driver.
Note:
Older versions of the
aic78xx.dsk
driver (before
v1.30) are compatible with
cda1000.dsk
as long as the
AAA-13xSA RAID card’s PCI slot is not specified on
the command line (e.g.,
load aic7870.dsk slot=
z
). If
there is an AIC-78xx based card (e.g., AHA-2940) in
the system,
z
must point to that card’s slot number
and not to the AAA-13xSA RAID card’s slot number.
If loaded without command line parameters, NetWare
list valid slot numbers. The AAA-13xSA RAID card
will be listed in the parameter list; however, do not
select it.

Load the NetWare
install
program from the NetWare colon
prompt (
:load install
). Follow the instructions in the NetWare
documentation to complete the installation (e.g., creating disk
partitions, system volumes, etc.) of your server.
