If you are very familiar with SCSI, hardware, and the installation process, continue with '3.0 Quick Installation instructions for Experienced Users'. If not, continue with '4.0 Detailed Installation Instructions'.

3.0 Quick Installation for Experienced Users
1. If using the integrated Adaptec controller, set the jumpers on the hard disk drive to SCSI ID 0 and be sure active termination is not enabled. If you have installed the PC ServeRAID II 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 setup.
2. If any ISA devices are installed (or will be installed) that need IRQs (or other system resources such as I/O ports or memory) reserved, select 'ISA Legacy Resources' and then the desired resource type you wish to reserve. Change the desired resource from 'Available' to 'ISA Resource'. From the 'ISA Legacy Resources' window, press Escape and select 'Save Settings'. Press Enter and then select 'Exit Setup'. Press Escape and Enter to select 'Yes, save and exit the Setup Utility'.
3. Install DOS, remembering to use a DOS partition smaller than 2 GB.
4. Run the UINSTALL utility off of the 'Netfinity 3500 IDE CD-ROM Support Package' to add IDE CD-ROM support for DOS.
5. Run INSTALL from the NetWare 4.11 CD.
6. If you are using the integrated Adaptec controller, use the AIC7870.DSK driver from the '7800 Family Manager Set for OS/2 and WIN NT, Diskette 1 of 2' as it will not be autodetected by the Installation.
7. If you have installed the PC ServeRAID II Adapter, use the IPSRAID.ADD driver from 'PC ServeRAID Device Driver and Utilities Diskette, Version 2.40' (or later) instead of the one from the NetWare 4.11 CD.

NOTE: If you wish to start (boot) to the ServeRAID II Adapter, disable the Host Adapter BIOS on both channels of the integrated Adaptec Controller.

8. Remove IDEATA.HAM from the Disk and CD-ROM Drivers.

NOTE: NetWare IDE CD-ROM support should be added after installation of IntranetWare Support Pack v4.0. Do not attempt to install NetWare IDE CD-ROM support before installing Support Pack 4.0 as unpredictable CD-ROM performance might result.

9. Use the E100B.LAN driver from the 'Netfinity 3500 Ethernet 10/100 Disk, Version 2.53' diskette for the integrated 10/100 Ethernet adapter. You might need to specify a slot number for the device. Use slot 10001 in this case.
10. Install IntranetWare Support Pack v4.0.
11. Install IDEATA.HAM from the server files and IDECD.CDM from the diskette you labeled 'IDECD.CDM Update' for IDE CD-ROM support under NetWare.

4.0 Detailed Installation Instructions:

4.1 Setting Up the Hardware for NOS Installation:
1. Extend the server's lateral base supports (feet) by turning them clockwise until they are perpendicular to the sides of the system unit.
2. Looking at the rear of the server, unlock the side access panel, pull out on the cover release tab in the middle of the right side panel, and push the panel forward to remove the side access panel.
3. For the initial installation, it is recommended that you remove all adapters and devices that are not required to get the base operating system installed. (For example, if 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.

NOTE: If you have installed the PC ServeRAID II Adapter and plan to use it as the startup device, see Appendix A after completing '4.2 Setting Up the BIOS'.

NOTE: If you plan to use an external DASD enclosure, the following instructions will not apply. Refer to the documentation provided with the external enclosure for proper setup, then proceed to '4.2 Setting Up the BIOS'.

4. With a flat-blade screwdriver, remove the single screw that fastens the lower drive assembly (located toward the front of the system) to the system unit. Remove the entire assembly from the server by tilting it down 1 or 2 inches and pulling it away from the system unit.
5. The startup hard disk drive should be set to SCSI ID 0 (this is the default; no jumpers on the ID pins signifies ID 0). Refer to the hard disk drive documentation for more information on setting the SCSI ID and termination.

NOTE: Termination for the SCSI chain is provided by the SCSI Cable (part number 01K1501, FRU 01K1497). Do not terminate any SCSI devices attached to this SCSI cable.

6. Insert the startup hard disk drive into the bottom bay of the drive assembly circuit-side down and SCSI connector facing the screw slot. Use the screw kit supplied with the hard disk drive to mount it to the assembly.
7. Reinsert the drive assembly into the server by reversing the removal instructions from step 4.
8. Attach the last connector (farthest from the controller) of the SCSI cable (part number 01K1501, FRU 01K1497) to the startup hard disk drive. Attach an available internal power connector to the SCSI hard disk drive.
9. Verify that the IDE cable (part number 01K1474, FRU 01K1475) runs from the integrated IDE controller to the CD-ROM drive located in the upper drive bay.
