Making client diskettes

Use the following procedures to make diskettes to install NetWare clients on your network.

The number of diskettes required is determined by the operating system of the client for which you are making diskettes; screen information indicates the number required. The diskettes do not need to be formatted.

1. In graphics mode, start the NetWare Client Disks utility using either of the following methods:

   • At the command line, enter scoadmin. When the scoadmin window appears, select ``NetWare'' then select ``NetWare Client Disks''.

   • Enter the following:
     
     scoadmin netware client disks

     See the note on the case of characters in scoadmin command lines in ``Viewing system messages during installation''.

   ---

   NOTE: You must have system administrator privileges to use the Application Installer. For information on these privileges, refer to ``Assigning authorizations''.

   ---

   The NetWare Client Disks window appears.

2. Select one of the operating system options from the pull-down menu.

3. Click Yes if you want error-checking on each client diskette. The default is ``No''.

   Verifying diskettes requires more time.

4. Click on OK to initiate your selections.

   A window appears.

5. Insert an appropriately labeled diskette into the drive and click on Apply.

   A window appears indicating the system is copying the diskette. When it is complete, the ``NetWare Client Diskette: make diskettes'' window reappears.

   ---

   NOTE: If you cancel during the procedure make sure the drive light is off, indicating the drive is available before you remove the diskette.

   ---

6. Insert the next diskette and click on Apply to continue making diskettes.

   Messages appear indicating the copy was successful.
