(2) At the NT Server, copy DM9102 NDIS2 Driver (DM9PCI.DOS) from


DM9102 Driver Diskette A:\LANTASTI to C:\WIN95SRV, C:\WINNT
\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT1 and C:\WINNT\RPL\RPLFILES\PROFILES\WACCNE2
directories, and copy DM9102 NDIS3 Driver (DM9PCI.SYS) from
A:\WIN95 to C:\WIN95SRV\SYSTEM directory,

COPY A:\LANTASTI\DM9PCI.DOS C:\WIN95SRV


COPY A:\LANTASTI\DM9PCI.DOS C:\WINNT\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT1
COPY A:\LANTASTI\DM9PCI.DOS C:\WINNT\RPL\RPLFILES\PROFILES\WACCNE2
COPY A:\WIN95\DM9PCI.SYS C:\WIN95SRV\SYSTEM

(3) Power OFF the Remote Boot Workstation, and plug DM9102
PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter WITHOUT the RPL BootROM into
the Remote Boot Workstation PCI slot. (DON'T remove
the ISA Ethernet Adapter)

(4) Startup the Workstation and remoteboot to Windows 95


using ISA Ethernet Adapter RPL Boot ROM.

(5) When Windows 95 startup, the new PCI Ethernet Controller


will be found, select "Driver from disk provided by hardware
manufacturer" from "New Hardware Found" dialog box.

(6) Insert DM9102 driver diskette into floppy drive (A:) and
enter "A:\WIN95" to "Install from Disk" field, then click
"OK" button to install DM9102 driver, sometimes Windows 95
will prompt you "File Copying Problem" dialog box, just
click "Skip File" button to continue driver installation.

(7) Restart the Remote Boot Workstation, after Windows 95 startup


again, select "Start" -> "Settings" -> "Control Panel",
double-click the "Network" and "System" items from "Control
Panel" dialog box to verify the DM9102 PCI Adapter has been
successfully added and the default protocols are bound to
the DM9102 PCI Adapter and the DM9102 device driver is worked
normally.
(8) Startup Windows 95 Workstation with CD-ROM drive, enter
Username and Password to logon NT Server.

(9) Insert Microsoft Windows 95 Resource Kit into Windows 95


CD-ROM drive.

(10) In Windows 95 Explorer, switch to the ADMIN\NETTOOLS\NETSETUP


directory of CD-ROM drive, double-click NETSETUP.EXE.

(11) In the Server-Based Setup dailog box, click "Set Path" button,
and specify the path to SBS Server (\\NT40SRV\WIN95SRV),
then click "OK" button.

(12) In the Server-Based Setup dailog box, click "Add" button,

(13) In the Set Up Machine dailog box, choose "Set Up One Machine"
and enter the following fields information, then click "OK"
button to copy the subsequence Windows 95 Clients files
from \\NT40SRV\CLIENTS\CLIENT1 directory to \\NT40SRV\CLIENTS
\CLIENT2 directory.

Computer name: CLIENT2


Path to machine directory: \\NT40SRV\CLIENTS\CLIENT2
Existing machine directory: \\NT40SRV\CLIENTS\CLIENT1

(14) The NETSETUP.EXE does NOT copy the SUBOOT directory so


you must MANUALLY copy the directory at the NT Server.

MD C:\WINNT\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT2\SUBOOT
CD C:\WINNT\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT2\SUBOOT
XCOPY C:\WINNT\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT1\SUBOOT\*.* .

(15) You must MANUALLY edit the following files in the SUBOOT
directory, all files except SYSTEM.DAT are in ASCII format
and can be edited using any Text Editor such as EDIT.COM.
(Please refer to the following sample files for DM9102)

PROTOCOL.INI
MSDOS.SYS
CONFIG.SYS
AUTOEXEC.BAT
WIN.BAT
SYSTEM.DAT

(16) To edit the mini registry file SYSTEM.DAT, use REGEDIT.EXE


to export its contents to text file, edit the text file,
then import the text file back into SYSTEM.DAT.

(P.S.: The SYSTEM.DAT MUST remove the "Read Only", "Hidden"


and "System" attributes.)

**************
* NOTICE !!! *
**************
The REGEDIT.EXE MUST be run from Windows 95 DOS Prompt Mode,
CAN'T be run from a DOS Session under Windows 95 or MS-DOS
Prompt. So we must reboot the Windows 95 Workstation to
Windows 95 DOS Prompt Mode (NOT under Windows 95) and
copy SYSTEM.DAT file from C:\WINNT\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT2\SUBOOT
directory of NT Server to the Windows 95 Workstation,
then run the following command at the Windows 95 Workstation.

Edit REGISTRY.TXT file by searching and replacing "client1"


with "client2", replacing "d:\\winboot" with "e:\\winboot"
and replacing "ne2000.dos" with "dm9pci.dos".

At the NT Server:

COPY C:\WINNT\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT2\SUBOOT\SYSTEM.DAT A:\

At the Windows 95 Workstation (At Windows 95 DOS Prompt Mode):

COPY A:\SYSTEM.DAT C:\


REGEDIT /L:SYSTEM.DAT /E REGISTRY.TXT
EDIT REGISTRY.TXT
REGEDIT /L:SYSTEM.DAT /C REGISTRY.TXT
ATTRIB -R -S -H SYSTEM.DAT
COPY C:\SYSTEM.DAT A:\

At the NT Server:

COPY A:\SYSTEM.DAT C:\WINNT\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT2\SUBOOT

(17) At the NT Server, go to MSDOS prompt, change the directory


to the \WINNT\RPL\BIN directory and run the following command
to copy some remoteboot files from CLIENT2\SUBOOT directory
to PROFILES\WDM9102\SUBOOT directory.

WIN95CLT.BAT \WINNT\RPL\CLIENTS\CLIENT2 \\NT40SRV WDM9102

(18) At the NT Server, change the directory to the \WIN95SRC


directory to edit the MACHINES.INI file and add the following
lines for the new clients.

[00606E00E925]
SYSDATPATH=G:\CLIENT2
G=\\NT40SRV\CLIENTS

(19) Power OFF the Remote Boot Workstation, remove the ISA Ethernet
Adapter, plug the RPL BootROM into DM9102 PCI Fast Ethernet
Adapter and plug DM9102 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter into
the Remote Boot Workstation PCI slot.

(20) Reboot the Remote Boot Workstation, the RPL BootROM will
try to remoteboot from the Remote Boot NT server.

(21) At the NT Server, select "Start" -> "Programs" -> "Administrative


Tools (Common)" -> "Remoteboot Manager", select "Refresh" from
"View" item, the Remote Boot Client MAC Address will display
into the "Remoteboot Manager - Local Machine" dialog box, select
the MAC Address and select "Convert Adapters" from "Remoteboot"
item select "Windows 95 for DAVICOM DM9102" from "Wksta In Profile"
item then specify the New Workstation Name, click "Add" button.

(22) At the NT Server, select "Start" -> "Programs" -> "Administrative


Tools (Common)" -> "User Manager for Domains", double-click
the New Remote Boot Username from the "User Manager - DOMAIN"
dialog box, click "Groups" button -> select "Administrators"
-> click "Add" button -> click "OK" button -> click "OK" button
to add Administrators Permission for the Remote Boot Workstation.

(23) Now the Remote Boot Workstation will remoteboot to Windows 95


from the Remote Boot NT Server by using DM9102 RPL BootROM,
and specify Username and Password to logon the Remote Boot
NT Server.
