3.0 Quick installation instructions for experienced users
1. If you have installed the PC ServeRAID III Adapter and plan to use it as the startup device, see Appendix A. If you plan to use an external DASD enclosure, refer to the documentation provided with the external enclosure for proper set up.
2. Install DOS. Remember to use a DOS partition smaller than 2GB.
3. If you are using the integrated Adaptec controller:
Run DOSINST from the EZ-SCSI Diskette 2 of 3, Version 4.02L to set up the DOS CD-ROM support.
Create a SERVER.312 directory and copy all the *.DSK files from the A:\NETWARE\V3_1X\ directory from the 7800 Family Manager Set for OS/2 and WIN NT, Diskette 1 of 2.
4. If you have installed the PC ServeRAID III Adapter:
Under DOS, use the A:\DOS\UNINSTALL utility from the PC ServeRAID Device Driver and Utilities Diskette, Version 3.01 (or later) to install the proper device and CD-ROM drivers.
Under NetWare, create a SERVER.312 directory and use the A:\NETWARE\INSTALL utility from the PC ServeRAID Device Driver and Utilities Diskette, Version 3.01 (or later) to install the proper device and CD-ROM drivers.
5. Using a standard text editor, determine if the following lines are contained within the CONFIG.SYS file on C. If they are, type REM at the beginning of these lines and save the file:
DOS=HIGH
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE
Note: The default drive letter for the CD-ROM drive is the first free drive letter under DOS (typically D). To specify the CD-ROM drive letter explicitly, edit the C:\MSCDEX /D:IBMCD100 /M:12 line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT by adding /L:D at the end of the line, replacing D with the desired drive letter.
6. Use the E100B.LAN device driver from the IBM Netfinity Ethernet Controller and IBM Netfinity Fault Tolerant Driver Diskette v2.00 or later for the integrated 10/100 Ethernet adapter. The device driver is located in NWSERVER directory.

4.0 Detailed Installation Instructions
4.1 Setting Up the Hardware for NOS Installation
1. Remove the top panel by loosening the thumbscrews at the back upper corners of the server. Remove the top access panel by pushing it toward the rear of the system.
2. For the initial installation, install all of the microprocessors that you plan to use, and remove all adapters and devices that are not required to get the base operating system installed. (For example, if you are installing multiple network adapters, only install one at this time. If a tape drive or external SCSI devices will be used, just disconnect them temporarily.) After the operating system is starting without errors, add these devices one at a time. This procedure simplifies the installation process.
Notes:
When installing additional microprocessors, be sure that a microprocessor or a terminator card is in slot 4.
If you have installed the PC ServeRAID III Adapter and you do not plan to use it as the startup device, do not install the PC ServeRAID III Adapter in slot 11 or 12.
