Hi

I had installed 4.3 GB on my system and I want to install Novell 3.12

I had created a Boot partion of 600 MB and then started to install the Novell 3.12 but the installer displays the message that my HD capacity of booting should be atleast 450 MB which I have , but it displays 0.9 MB boot partition and 1 MB for free space...

it does not recognise the partition or Novell does not support more than 2.1 GB
I had created boot partition with DOS 6.22

Pl help me out
Thanks

1. Try to run FDISK /MBA.
2. Try to re-partition your HD.
3. Create at least one (1) percent of DOS partition.
4. Try to re-install NetWare 3.12
5. Make one partition for netware.
6. Make at least two volumes from the netware partition, 2.1gb maximum.
7. by the way how much memory do you have?

What kind of drive is it. What kind of controller. I do know that the Adaptec scsi controllers has a bios option for drives above 2 gb.
