Installing the DOS NDIS2 Driver Software on the Hard Disk

To install the DOS NDIS2 Driver Software on the hard disk

1. Verify that the system has Microsoft LAN Manager 2.2 installed, with a protocol such as NetBEUI configured.
2. Create a folder on your hard disk to store the NDIS 2.01 driver.

Example: C:\LANMAN

3. Copy the B57.dos file to this folder.
4. Edit the Config.sys file by adding the following lines:

DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.DOS
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\B57.DOS
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\NETBEUI.DOS

5. Edit the Autoexec.bat file by adding the following lines:

C:\LANMAN\NETBIND.EXE
C:\LANMAN\NET START WORKSTATION
C:\LANMAN\NET USE drive letter: \\server name\resource name

6. Edit the Protocol.ini file (located in C:\LANMAN) to configure the driver to bind with NetBEUI or any other protocols.

Example:

[PROTOCOL MANAGER]
DriverName = PROTMAN$
[NETBEUI_XIF]
DriverName = netbeui$
BINDINGS = B57
[B57]
DriverName = "B57$"

7. Restart the computer to complete the installation.

NOTE: The driver loads during system configuration and displays the Broadcom banner, controller name, MAC
