To automatically load the aic78u2.ham driver during the boot routine, the startup.ncf
file must contain a load command line that specifies the location of the driver on the
hard-disk drive and any available options. To find the slot number, type load
c:\nwserver\aic78u2.ham at the console prompt and press <Enter>. A list of
slot numbers separated by commas is displayed. (If that command line does not yield
a list of slot numbers, use the command line load a:\scsi\aic78u2.ham.)
Press <Esc> to clear the command line.
NOTE: To load the driver from your hard-disk drive, the
aic78u2.ham
driver and
nwaspi.cdm
module must be copied from your IntranetWare driver diskette to a
directory on your hard-disk drive (usually the server's start-up directory [for example,
c:\nwserver
]).
The syntax to load the aic78u2.ham driver follows:
load [
pathname
]\aic78u2.ham [
options
] slot=
x
For example, the command line to load the driver from the c:\nwserver directory with
the verbose= option on and a slot number of 10002 follows:
load c:\nwserver\aic78u2.ham verbose=y slot=10002
NOTE: For each Adaptec 78
xx
host adapter installed, a separate
load
command line
must be included in the
startup.ncf
file. The slot number (
slot=
) identifies the specific
adapter.
To modify the startup.ncf file, follow these steps:
1. At the IntranetWare prompt, type install and press <Enter>.
2. Choose the menu selection that allows you to edit the startup.ncf file.
3. Make the necessary changes. When you are finished, press <F10>.

The aha2940.ham driver module fully supports removable-media disk drives, includ-
ing magneto-optical drives. Removable media is treated as a standard SCSI hard-disk
drive, with the following exceptions:
 The driver only recognizes and registers media with 512 bytes per sector.
 IntranetWare allows you to mount or dismount the media and lock or unlock the
media.
These removable-media options are supported by IntranetWare’s monitor.nlm
program.
To set up the removable media, follow these steps:
1. L o a d monitor.nlm to display the various options.
2. Select Disk Information.
A list of system hard-disk drives appears.
