OS Version: 386

GENERAL
INFORMATION: A customer reports that they are using an ALR 486/25 EISA
machine as a Netware 386 server under v3.0a with 24 MB of
RAM. He is not using 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 IMSP. It
has been tested and guaranteed by ALR, however.
When Compaq originally wrote the specifications for super
extended memory in the EISA machines, Novell took that
specifications and wrote NetWare 386 v3.0 according to it.
Later, Compaq changed the specifications and Novell
implemented the register statement in NetWare 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.
