In order to enable the CD-ROM boot, the controller’s 
BIOS must be enabled.

4. If the controller’s BIOS is disabled, press <Enter> to enable the BIOS.

5. Use the arrow key to select “CD-ROM boot disabled” and press 

<Enter> to enable the CD-ROM boot. 

6. Press <ESC>, then press any key. This will restart the system with the 

new settings. 

The system will now boot from the NetWare 5.0 CD-ROM. 

7. Return to the section “Installing NetWare 5.0 Drivers” and follow steps 

4 through 7 to complete your driver installation. 

Non-disk peripheral devices, such as tape or CD-ROM drives, can be 
installed on any channel of the controller. Each disk or non-disk device will 
require a unique SCSI ID, different from any other device connected to the 
channel.

Each device requires a driver module connecting it to the DAC adapter. 
These modules are best loaded in the STARTUP.NCF file before the 
MDAC.HAM driver.

The common devices and required modules are:

SCSI disk drives 

SCSIHD.CDM

(including Mylex 
 RAID system drives)

SCSI CD-ROM

SCSICD.CDM

SCSI tape drive

NWTAPE.CDM

Magneto optical drive 

SCSIMO.CDM

DLT tape drive

DLTTAPE.CDM

IDE CD-ROM

IDECD.CDM

IDE disk drive
