Title: Remote Boot EPROM Fix for DOS 3.2
We have made a Remote Boot EPROM fix to the following networks
to support DOS 3.2:
Gateway G/NET Part #817-000215-003 Rev. B
Gateway G/NET Part #817-000216-003 Rev. B
Allen-Bradley VistaLAN/PC Part #817-000233-001 Rev. B
Orchid Technology PCnet Part #817-000235-001 Rev. B
Proteon ProNET Part #817-000236-001 Rev. B
Nestar PLAN 2000 Part #817-000237-001 Rev. B
3Com EtherLink Part #817-000238-001 Rev. B
Corvus Omninet Part #817-000239-001 Rev. B
Advanced NetWare 68
IBM Intelligent NIC Part #817-000240-001 Rev. B
Advanced NetWare 68 IBM NIC Part #817-000242-001 Rev. B*
IBM Token-Ring Part #817-000263-001 **
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.
