I have a 6023p server using adpu320 raid. The motherboard has two on-board ethernet ports.

During netware 4.2 install:
Basically I can't get slot numbers for the lan ports or for the raid. When I try to load the lan driver with not slot number (it should then list the slot numbers), no slot numbers are displayed, the driver just fails to load.

With the raid, when I load the driver without specifing slot number, it lists 901 and 902, which netware seems to accept. However, when it comes to making the netware partition, it says it can't find partition on cdrom device
in otherwords, the only slot numbers given (901, 902) point to the cd.

Any ideas?
 
If you load the NIC drivers manually and give it a bogus slot number (LOAD MYNIC.LAN SLOT=12345, it should tell you and prompt you with correct choices.

You can try the same thing with the RAID and see what it gives you. Typically, integrated devices have a high slot number like 10009.
