NP600 File Server Installation (2.0 and 2.1).
________________________________________________
Preparation of GENOS diskettes (2.0).
In order to generate the operating system copy all xCOMDRV.OBJ files to the
GENOS-1 disk and proceed with a normal server generation.
The binary file NP600DLA.BIN should be copied to a working copy of Novell
diskette labeled SYSTEM prior to the installlation of the software on the
hard disk of the file server.
Novell default settings for NP600 ( configuration 1 of the file server ):
I/O base address : 300 Hex
DMA : Channel 7
Interrupt : IRQ9
Cable type : Thin Ethernet
Transceiver : AC coupled
This configuration can be obtained by closing jumpers IRQ9 and CH7, setting
A9 and A8 to B, A7 trough A3 to A, W15 through W18 to B and moving the
jumper block on W40 through W46 to position 1-3 (CNET).
The interrupt level can be changed to IRQ3, IRQ5, IRQ11 and IRQ15
To change I/O base address use jumpers A9 through A3, where A9 is the most
significant bit. Convert hex to bin, strip first two and last 3 digits.
Position A is 0, position B is 1.
To change to other DMA channels move two jumpers to CH1, CH3 or CH5.
To change from Thin to standard Ethernet move the jumper block W40 through
W46 to position 2-4 (ENET).
When connecting to Thinnet make sure that the BNC connector does not touch
the chassis of your PC.
Note: 2.0a, NP600 drivers dated 10-19-87 3:05p ( 3286 bytes ) were tested
with Compaq 386, 20MHz.
NetWare 2.1 Installation.
These drivers allow correct initialization in machines running at speeds up
to 20MHz. Copy all ?N600DRV.OBJ files to your working copy of LAN_DRV_.003
diskette. Copy ETHNP600.LAN to your AUXGEN diskette. Run NETGEN.
