.There is a change made in all PROM Software to load the entire Boot Image
File from the server to the Workstation memory, then execute from there; if
there is 512K or more in the Workstation.  If there is less than 512K of
memory in the Workstation then get the Boot Image a sector at a time from
the server.  In the case of the IBM Token-Ring however, there must be 512K
memory in the workstation.

If you are interested in purchasing the new Remote Boot EPROM contact either
the Novell NetWare Center or your Novell dealer and indicate the above part
#'s for the EPROMs needed.

*The Advanced NetWare 68 IBM NIC EPROM Part #817-000242-001 Rev. B can be
 used on either the standard NIC part #810-000056-000 or the static
 protected NIC part #810-000086-000.

**Please note that this is a new EPROM now available.
