Hi
Can anyone please help me.
I am trying to install Netware 5.1. But the installation do not detect my Netgear FA311 nic. I have used their driver on the cd, but Netware is not haveing it. Please help me!!!
 
You can install it manualy. Or, just copy this driver into c:\nwserver and run it from autoexec.ncf
load driver.lan slot =???? frame=ethernet_802.? name=NAME
BIND PROTOCOL NAME ...

Or run inetcfg and add driver from the list.
 
He's talking about the NetWAre 5.1 install process.. So he doesn't have a functional server for which to do that with yet.

ekke--- look on your driver cd for a *.LAN and *.LDI file for your Netgear nic. They should be named the same, with the different extension. Do this from a workstation, then note the location and name of the files. If you can find them, you should be able to point to the location of the LDI file during the NetWare install and then it should pick up the driver.
