NOVELL 386 WITH AST DESK TOP AND TOWER SYSTEMS
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following problems are occurring with AST Cupid desktop and Cupid Tower
|
|
systems configured with more than 16MB of RAM with Novell Netware 386 version
|
|
3.10:
|
|
|
|
- System will lock up after attempting to mount the drives
|
|
|
|
- Intermittent memory parity errors occur
|
|
|
|
- Intermittent lock-ups occur
|
|
|
|
The above problems occur because the Novell operating system has not been
|
|
made aware of any memory above 16MB. This problem can be resolved by
|
|
registering the memory with the Novell operating system so that it knows how
|
|
to access the memory. To accomplish this, edit the AUTOEXEC.NCF file within
|
|
the Novell install option as follows:
|
|
|
|
REGISTER MEMORY [START(hex)] [LENGTH(hex)].
|
|
|
|
Using the chart below replace the [START(hex)] and [LENGTH(hex)] with the
|
|
appropriate parameter.
