Subject: Error "Packed file corrupt" Token-Ring

PROBLEM: A customer was running NETGEN installation on a IBM PS/2
Model 80 and had an IBM Token-Ring adapter installed. He
got the error "Packed file is corrupt". After changing
everything (NetWare, Model 80, Token-Ring adapter) he called
Novell.
SOLUTION: Attach a workstation patch cable (the one that runs from the
workstation to the MAU). Without even plugging it into the
MAU, it went past the place where it was erroring out.
Also be advised that you have to have the same cable
attached (once again it doesn't have to be plugged into the
MAU) for the file server to come up.
