AST ETHERNODE REMOTE BOOT AND DOS 5.00
SYMPTOM: The remote boot feature on the AST Ethernode network card does
not work with DOS 5.0. Workstations attempting to attach to
the file server will hang during the remote boot process.
PROBLEM: The boot image file (NET$DOS.SYS) is not designed to work with
DOS 5.0.
SOLUTION: A file called RPLFIX.COM is available through Novell or on
Compuserve's "Novell Netwire" forum. This program patches the
NET$DOS.SYS boot image file that the Novell utility DOSGEN.EXE
produces. Please consult the Netware manuals for more
information on the DOSGEN utility.
