- I am having problems setting up some workstations to Remote Boot off of our
- 3.11 server. The workstations seem to be set up properly, i.e. they connect
- when booted off of the floppy disk I am using for the boot image, but they
- crash right after I tell the machine to boot from the network. The Novell
- Remote Boot screen comes up with the copyright dates and version
- information, and the machine sends out a "get nearest server" and the server
- replies, but then the machine crashes and will not warm boot, and it must be
- reset. The boot ROM is at the default address D8000, and there does not
- seem to be any memory conflict. I have been folowing the Installation
- manuel exactly for the single Remote Boot image file directions.
-
- My workstations are AST Bravo 4/33 workstations with SMC Ethercard PLUS
- Elite 16 (SMC8013) ethernet cards. I have the Netware Boot ROM version 4.0.
-
- Does anyone have any Idea what I am doing wrong?
-
- Thanks!
