                     NDIS 2.01 Drivers Installation Notes


 Banyan VINES
 ------------

 To install VINES 5.0 software on a DOS NDIS workstation, follow these 
 instructions.  DOS must be installed on the target workstation C: drive, or
 you must have a bootable DOS floppy.

 1.  Use the DOS MD command to create a subdirectory called \VINES.

 2.  Copy the contents of the VINES LAN S/W (DOS) Install diskette into the
     \VINES subdirectory.

 3.  Copy the contents of the NDIS subdirectory on the VINES LAN S/W (DOS) 2
     of 2 diskette into the \VINES subdirectory.

 4.  Copy the PROTOCOL.INI fragment from the NDIS\DOS subdirectory on the
     EtherDisk diskette to the \VINES subdirectory.

 5.  Edit the PROTOCOL.INI file to read as follows:

     [PROTOCOL MANAGER]
      DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$

     [VINES_XIF]
      DRIVERNAME = NDISBAN$
      BINDINGS = ELINKPC3

     [ELINKPC3]
      DRIVERNAME = ELPC3$
         
 6.  Run the PCCONFIG.EXE program located in the \VINES subdirectory.

 7.  Select option 1, Network Card Settings.

 8.  Select the NDIS Ethernet option.

 9.  The NDIS workstation screen appears.  Enter the IRQ that you selected for
     the EtherLink/PCMCIA adapter.  Select the IRQ using the Configuration
     and Diagnostic Program. 
                  
 10. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file and add the following lines, substituting A:
     for C: for a floppy disk installation.
                                   
     DEVICE = C:\VINES\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\VINES
     DEVICE = C:\VINES\ELPC3.DOS

 11. Add the BAN command to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  BAN loads the NDISBAN
     drivers and reads the PCCONFIG.DB file to invoke changes made during the
     PCCONFIG stage.
