GENERAL
INFORMATION: A customer reports that they are using an ALR 486/25 EISA
machine as a NetWare 386 server under v3.0 Rev. A with 24MB
of RAM. He is not using either the Compaq executable patch
or the Register statement in AUTOEXEC.NCF in order to
recognize his RAM.
The ALR 486/25 EISA has not been certified through the IMSP.
It has been tested and guaranteed by ALR, however.
When Compaq originally wrote the specification for super
extended memory in the EISA machines, Novell took that spec.
and wrote NetWare 386 v3.0 according to it. Later, Compaq
changed the spec. and Novell implemented the Register
statement in v3.1 as a fix. Perhaps ALR is following the
original EISA specification which would explain why you
wouldn't need to run any patches.
