Abstract: IBM Netfinity 10/100 Ethernet for Novell intraNetWare 4.11 won't load

Symptom:
The message "Unable to load the IBM Netfinity 10/100 Ethernet driver" or "Unable to load IBM 10/100 Etherjet driver" may be displayed while installing Novell intraNetWare 4.11 (NW411) from ServerGuide 4.12.

The IBMFE.LAN Device Driver for the IBM Netfinity 10/100 Ethernet/IBM 10/100 Etherjet Adapter is affected.

The system is configured with Novell NetWare 4.1x.
