CD will not mount 1

[Guest_imported]

While installing the 3 license demo for Netware 5. I received the following error message.


An attempt to mount cd-rom volume netware5 as a netware volume failed. Control will be switched to the system console screen, whre you may view the error explanation.. (nwconfig-5-391)

Please help:

This is due to the appropriate IDE or scsi driver not loading. What you may want to do is just keep it configured as a dos drive until you get the server completely installed then mount it from there.

I am doing a new install of NEtware 6 and it errors out near the start when trying to mount the CD ROM. Any clue?

Hi there,

Its not very helpful, I know, but I am having the same problem (but with NW 5.1)

I am trying to do a new install and I get as far as mounting the CD and it asks me for drivers that are already there and insists that they aren't.

Anyone know what I've done/should be doing?

Thanks

Emily
