Mylex Disk Array Controller Driver for 
NetWare 5.0

Installing the Mylex Disk Array Controller as the Primary 
NetWare 5.0 Controller

If the Mylex Disk Array Controller will be the primary (bootable) controller, 
you must install the controller driver at the time of NetWare 5.0 installation.

Installing NetWare 5.0 Drivers

NetWare version 5.0 is available on CD-ROM. Drivers provided in the \DOS 
subdirectory of the Software Kit distribution diskette (packaged with the 
Mylex Disk Array Controller and RAID EzAssist Configuration Utility 
Reference Guide
 are required to install NetWare 5.0 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).

2. Boot the system with the new CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT, 

and make sure the NetWare CD-ROM files are accessible under DOS.

3. Follow the standard NetWare 5.0 upgrade or installation procedure, as 

described in the NetWare 5.0 documentation. 

• While the files are being copied, a message will appear stating 

“matching drivers to hardware devices.”
