Hi There!

I am trying to install netware 3.12 on a desktop machine so that we can downsize from our old huge 386 server. I install dos 5 and then install system disk 1 and 2 then type load isadisk and load install. I can creat a betware partition and it sees my 30mb dos partition. But when I come to create/mount a volume I get the error message "unable allocating memory to fat table". I have tried on several different pc's. Anyone know what I am doing wrong or how to get around it?

Thanks so much for any help

Paul
