General Installation Notes

Be sure to read General Guidelines for All VMware Products on page 13 as well as this

guide to installing your specific guest operating system.

You can install NetWare 5.1 in a virtual machine using the standard Novell NetWare 5.1

CD-ROM.

Keep the following issues in mind:

• VMware recommends you install NetWare 5.1 on a computer with at least

256MB of memory.

• For SCSI support, be sure to download the latest LSI Logic driver as described in

Updated LSI Logic SCSI Driver on page 132.

When you configure a virtual machine for a NetWare 5.1 guest, use the virtual LSI

Logic SCSI adapter. NetWare 5.1 Support Pack 6 does not include a driver for the

virtual BusLogic SCSI adapter.

• In the NetWare installation process, you must boot from the installation CD twice

—once to format the virtual machine's disk drive, then a second time to install

files from the CD.

On the reboot, you see a message that says “Operating System not found” and a

dialog box with a message that says “No bootable CD, floppy or hard disk was

detected.”

In order to boot from the CD the second time, you must change the boot order.

As the virtual machine boots, click inside the virtual machine window. When the

VMware logo appears, press Esc. Use the arrow keys to select the CD drive as the

boot device, then press Enter.
