Not enough memory above 640K to run the server (requires 384K).
Occurs on: ND286 only.
Meaning: Nondedicated NetWare 286 requires more memory than the
file server hardware has. In the Nondedicated
environment, the first 640KB of RAM is used for the DOS
workstation. The next 384KB of address space is reserved
for adaptor cards and the ROM BIOS. NetWare utilizes all
RAM above 640KB (starting at the 1 megabyte boundary) for
the file server. The file server requires at least 384KB
above the 1 MB boundary in order to run. This must be
extended memory. Therefore, Nondedicated NetWare 286 will
only run on a system that has at least 1 MB of system RAM
with at least 384KB mapped above the 1 MB boundary. This
is considered a fatal error and the server will halt
operation and continuously display this error message.
Cause: The file server does not have enough memory installed in it.
This error could also be generated as a result of a failure
in high memory, which would cause the file server to think
that it has less memory installed.
Solution: First, check that the file server has at least 1 MB of
system RAM correctly installed in it, with at least 384KB
mapped above the 1 MB boundary. If the server has plenty
of memory installed in it and it still fails, check to
make sure that the memory is good.
