Select Available System Options. You can create the
STARTUP.NCF and AUTOEXEC.NCF files by selecting the
appropriate menu items.
Your STARTUP.NCF file looks similar to this:
load aspitran
load aha1740 port=330
Your AUTOEXEC.NCF file looks similar to this:
file server name MYFILESERVER
ipx internal net 2
mount all
Replace MYFILESERVER with the name of your file server. See your
NetWare installation guide for the IPX INTERNAL NET number.
Note
For STARTUP.NCF to execute properly with NetWare 386
versions 3.1
and 3.11, you mast load the ASPITRAN.DSK file before the
AHA1540. DSK or AHA174O.DSK file.
Formatting
SCSI drives
To format a SCSI hard disk drive, you can use the INSTALL.NLM
program for NetWare 386 version 3.1 or 3.11. You can also
perform a low level format of several SCSI drives at once. See your
NetWare manuals for details.
When the INSTALL program prompts you for an interleave value,
enter 0. This value instructs the drive to use its optimal interleave
value.
Using removable media
The AHA1740.DSK driver supports removable media disk drives
including magneto-optical drives. The driver treats removable
media as standard SCSI hard disk drives with a few exceptions.
One exception is the driver only recognizes and registers media
with 512KB per sector.
