Checking Hardware Configuration
A CD-ROM drive, a SVGA display adapter, a monitor, and a
network interface card are required for any installation of
NetWare 6.0.
The use of a USB, PS/2, or serial mouse is also recommended.
The most recent version of the client software is recommended
for workstations supported by the network server.
![Page 8: Lesson 4-Installing Network Operating Systems](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/568148d7550346895db5f244/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Testing Server Hardware
In order to ensure that the server’s hardware is functioning
properly, it is essential to rebuild the hard disk drives and
perform a fresh installation.
The existing partitions can be deleted either using a
bootable CD or the DOS FDISK program.
A primary DOS partition is created when a fresh installation
is performed.
![Page 9: Lesson 4-Installing Network Operating Systems](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/568148d7550346895db5f244/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Testing Server Hardware
A primary partition is an active area on the hard disk, which
is used by the operating system during startup.
By default, only 200 MB of the partition space is used
during NetWare 6 installation.
![Page 10: Lesson 4-Installing Network Operating Systems](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/568148d7550346895db5f244/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Testing Server Hardware
NetWare server can be installed on a Windows NT or a Windows
2000 Server or Workstation.
The FDISK program is used to identify if the NT drive is on a FAT
or a NTFS partition.
A FAT partition should have its Windows NT boot loader
removed to repartition the disk.
A NTFS partition can be removed using installation floppy disks
to install a NetWare server.
![Page 11: Lesson 4-Installing Network Operating Systems](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/568148d7550346895db5f244/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Testing Server Hardware
DOS should be installed on the server’s hard disk drive
using DOS 6.21 or 6.22 setup disks.
The special DOS version NDOS, included in the installation
software package, overwrites the test configurations
installed on the drive and automatically selects updated
drivers.
![Page 12: Lesson 4-Installing Network Operating Systems](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/568148d7550346895db5f244/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
