Make sure that the CONFIG.SYS file contains the FILES=50 and
BUFFERS=30 commands.
6 (Conditional) To upgrade from NetWare 6 files located on a network,
install the Novell Client for DOS and Windows 3.1x or IP Server
Connection Utility software located on the Novell Client CD.
What’s Next
After accessing the NetWare 6 installation files, follow the instructions for
installing a server beginning with “Installing the Software” on page 35.
IMPORTANT: If you are upgrading a NetWare server with NSS volumes, the NSS
volumes will not appear or mount until they are updated. Updating NSS volumes is
done after finishing the server upgrade by following the instructions in “Updating
NSS Volumes” on page 84.
Because you are doing an upgrade, you are not prompted to provide all the
information normally required for a new server installation. The installation
program uses existing information to skip entire sections and complete the
upgrade to NetWare 6.
HINT: Don’t forget to select Upgrade as the type of installation.
