Remote Boot Proms: RPL - IBM PC LAN Program
This file contains instructions specific for the installation and
operation of Intel's TokenExpress adapter driver. Refer to the
appropriate Network Operation System documentation for any NOS-specific
questions or other information.
These instructions apply to Release 5.0 of the software.
Installing and Configuring the Intel® TokenExpress adapter RPL Driver for
IBM* PC LAN.
To use the RPL ROM with IBM PC LAN, you must configure a "Domain
Controller", then prepare the RPL image file.
- Install the Intel® TokenExpress adapter DLC driver using the INSTIBM
program.
Insert the Intel TokenExpress adapter drivers diskette #2 in a
drive and make that the current drive. At the DOS prompt type:
\IBM\DOS\INSTIBM [source_drive] [target_drve]
where
[source_drive] is the drive containing the Intel diskette.
[target_drive] is the drive which you want to install the network
software
For Example: \IBM\DOS\INSTIBM A: C:
- Reboot the server.
Note: The Intel® TokenExpress EISA/32 adapter does not support
RPL when used in a workstation. The remaining installation steps
are followed when the workstation contains one of the other members
of Intel's family of TokenExpress adapters.
- See the IBM PC LAN Network Program Installation and Configuration
manual to install PC LAN Extended Services. When prompted, make
this computer a "Domain Controller." Then go on to the next step
immediately. If you do anything else before performing the next
step, some of the machine definitions you just set up may be lost.
- Immediately after installing Extended Services, run Intel's INSTRPL
program. Insert the Intel TokenExpress drivers diskette and make
that the current drive. At the DOS prompt, type:
\IBM\DOS\INSTRPL [p1][p2][p3]
where
[p1] is the drive containing the Intel diskette. Include the colon
(:) in the driver name.
[p2] is the path to the IBMLAN directory.
[p3] is 0 if the workstation won't use expanded memory, or 1 if
the workstation will use expanded memory.
Example: IBM\DOS\INSTRPL A: C:\ 1
This program copies the Intel RPL DLC driver (OC02DLCR.SYS) to a
subdirectory under the \PCLP13XS directory and renames the copied
file DXMC0MOD.SYS.
- Reboot the Domain Controller computer and invoke PC LAN.
- See the IBM PC LAN Network Program Installation and Configuration
manual, and perform the following steps as described in the manual:
- Define the RPL workstation to the Domain Controller
- Assign the workstation to a Program Server
- Prepare the RPL image for the workstation
- Start the Program Server
- Boot the RPL workstation
When you boot the workstation, the RPL ROM automatically adjusts to the
TokenExpress adapter's switch settings.
