 it).

 Active Partition not a DOS Partition    Help 1 of 2
  By default, the installation program copies server
 boot files to the active partition on the first
 hard disk (device 0). However, the active partition
 on this computer is not a DOS partition.
 Normally, this error prevents you from proceeding.
 However, some boot manager utilities allow you to
 boot your machine from one partition, and then
 select another partition to be used for that
 session. In this case, the DOS partition would not
 be marked as active.

 Active Partition not a DOS Partition
                                    Help 2 of 2
  This installation program cannot detect a
 case such as this one, but it allows you to
 specify the destination path where server boot
 files are copied.
 If you understand this error condition, and if
 you are sure that it won't cause problems on
 your system, continue with the installation.

 No DOS Partition on Hard Disk      Help 1 of 2
  By default, the installation program copies
 the server boot files to the active partition
 on the first hard disk (device 0). However,
 the first hard disk on this computer does not
 contain a DOS partition.
 Normally, this error prevents you from
 proceeding. However, you may have decided to
 copy boot files to a disk other than the
 first hard disk (e.g. D:). The installation
 program cannot detect this case.

 No Active Partition on Hard disk    Help 1 of 2
  By default, the installation program copies
 the server boot files to the active partition
 on the first hard disk (device 0). However,
 there is no active partition on the first hard
 drive of this computer.
 Normally, this error prevents you from
 proceeding. However, you may have decided to
 copy boot files to a disk other than the first

 Active Partition is Too Small       Help 1 of 2
  By default, the installation program copies
 the server boot files to the active partition
 on the first hard disk (device 0). That
 partition is not large enough to hold the
 NetWare server boot files.
 Normally, this error prevents you from
 proceeding. However, you can copy boot files to
 a disk other than the first hard disk, or you
 may have a utility that allows you to use

 this error condition, and if you are sure that
 it won't cause problems on your system,
 continue with the installation.

 Use your existing STARTUP.NCF?        Help 1 of 1
    When SERVER.EXE loads as part of installation,
    your STARTUP.NCF file won't be executed. This
    avoids any incompatibilities between your
    previous STARTUP.NCF file version of the
    NetWare operating system being installed.
    The existing STARTUP.NCF file will be invoked
    as SERVER.EXE loads. This allows any
    drivers in your "old" STARTUP.NCF file to be
    loaded when the server comes up.
 <Esc>=Exit Help
 Can't Find Existing SERVER.EXE     Help 1 of 1
  INSTALL cannot find your SERVER.EXE file.
 If you are upgrading this server, a
   previous NetWare version should be installed

   containing the previous version of
   SERVER.EXE.
 If your previous SERVER.EXE file is on a
   removable drive or no longer exists, specify

 Special Set Commands                         Help 1 of 1
   There are only limited reasons why you would want to
 specify special startup commands.
 The most common of these reasons is the case in which you
 have a driver that requires memory below 16 megabytes, and
 your machine has more than 16 megabytes of memory.
 If you know you have such a need, choose "Yes", otherwise
 choose "No".

 Expanded Memory                        Help 1 of 1
   A NetWare server cannot be loaded if an Expanded
 (EMS) Memory Manager (such as EMM386.SYS) is
 loaded. These drivers conflict with NetWare in
 their use of memory.
 In order to install and run NetWare on this
 machine, you must remove the appropriate driver
 from your CONFIG.SYS file and reboot the machine.

 Not Enough Memory                          Help 1 of 1
   After loading the installation program there is not
 enough free memory to load the server. There must be
 enough memory to load this program, and to have
 sufficient remaining free memory to load the server as
 well.
 You must exit this program and remove any unnecessary
 TSRs or other programs that are using memory. When you
 have freed up enough memory, you may restart the
 installation.

 Filename Format                                            Help 1 of 1
   Under most circumstances you will want to choose DOS filename
 format. This will give you compatibility with DOS, as well as with
 future releases of NetWare.
 You should not choose NetWare format filenames unless you have a
 specific need for non-DOS compatible filenames.
 If you are upgrading an existing server, and there are files on your
 server which contain any of the characters that NetWare allows as
 lower case, and if you choose DOS filename format, VREPAIR will change
 the lower case characters to upper case when the volume is mounted.
 The DOS filename format is used by the NetWare DOS requester (VLM) no
 matter what you choose here. The NetWare shells (e.g. NETX) will work
 with either DOS format or NetWare format filenames.
