README FOR LDR001.PTF v1.00
The following files are included in this revision:
LDR001 DOC 3200 7-06-92 11:00a
LDR001 PTF 52920 11-06-91 4:55p
XLOAD DOC 3472 7-06-92 11:00a
XLOAD EXE 13872 8-06-91 4:47p
This loader is intended for NetWare 386 v3.11 (all
number-of-user versions) and requires the utility
XLOAD.EXE in order to be applied.
This LDR001.PTF contains the following revisions:
1) This LDR001.PTF fixes an existing problem with PS/2
machines with type 2 keyboards. If the server is
loaded at these machines and any key is pressed,
strange characters may appear at the console
prompt.
2) When performing a core memory dump on some machines, the
OS will continue to prompt "Insert a formatted
disk" even after one has been inserted.
3) Some 486 machines with the math co-processor will
hang after the server has been downed.
4) LDR001.PTF fixes a problem encountered when using the network
server mode password on IBM PS/2 machines. Previously
when setting the network server mode password on and loading
NetWare 386 v3.11, the server would appear to lock up during
the loading of the OS. This new loader solves this problem.
Note: After activating the keyboard by entering the password,
the <NUM LOCK> key may not be properly synchronized. Tapping
the <NUM LOCK> key three times will ensure that functionality
is correct.
5) On some PS/2s, the server hangs when loading. This
was because bit 20 was not enabled. This new
loader uses port 92 to enable bit 20.
6) This version of the loader modifies the DoEndOfInterrupt, so that it
translates int 2 to int 9. The problem was that an end of interrupt
was not being issued to the controller as it should.
7) LDR001.PTF is referred to by Intel documentation for their
SnapIn 386 module as the "NetWare 386 Bit20 Patch".
These fixes will be incorporated is future version of
LDRxxx.PTF for NetWare 386 3.11.
Installation:
See the documentation included with XLOAD.EXE for
installation of this new loader.
