You can get the drivers from ftp.novell.com\pub\netwire\novfiles\dosup9.exe.
This is a self extracting zip file with all the drivers you should need. If
you can't find a driver for your board and you board isn't compatible with any
of the drivers (i.e. NE2000) then you'll need to get an MLID ODI driver from
the manufacturer of your card. You need to run the following drivers:
lsl
ne2000 (MLID for your NIC)
ipxodi
You will also need to create a NET.CFG file in the directory where you load
the above drivers. The following is a sample net.cfg file:
Link Support
Buffers 8 1500
MemPool 4096
Max Stacks 8
Link Driver ne2000
PORT 300
INT 5
Frame Ethernet_802.3
Protocol ipx 0 Ethernet_802.3
That should do it. Good luck.
