NOVELL TECHNICAL BULLETIN
TITLE: Novell NetWare v2.x and the IBM PS/2
Enhanced 80386 2 MB and 4 MB Memory Expansion
Option Kits
DOCUMENT ID#: TB.P.296
DATE: 11 September 1991
PRODUCT: NetWare
PRODUCT REVISION: v2.x
CROSS-REFERENCE: TB.P.263, TB.P.289
SYMPTOM: N/A
ISSUE/PROBLEM:
Technical Bulletin TB.P.263 describes a conflict between the IBM
PS/2 Enhanced 80386 Memory Expansion Option and the cold boot
loader of NetWare v2.x operating systems wherein the NetWare cold
boot loader and the IBM Memory Expansion Option software are each
placed on track 0 of the file server's bootable fixed disk when
they are installed. According to TB.P.263, the only solution to
this conflict was to load all software on a bootable floppy
diskette and use that diskette to boot the file server.
A NetWire patch (IBMMEM.ZIP) was subsequently released which
corrected the conflict for NetWare v2.1x operating systems.
Technical Bulletin TB.P.289 mentions this fact and further
describes the above conflict in the context of NetWare v2.2
operating systems.
SOLUTION:
A patch now exists which corrects this conflict for both NetWare
2.1x and NetWare 2.2 operating systems. This patch is also called
IBMMEM.ZIP and replaces the previously released IBMMEM.ZIP, which
corrected the problem only for NetWare v2.1x. IBMMEM.ZIP is
located on NetWire in downloadable library 8.
