According to an April 1999 article, NetWare 4.10 (excluding OS/2, SMP and SFT III) is Y2K Compatbile with an update.
Discontinued on 1 May 2000 (ref).
Patches and notes about Netware 4.10.
NetWare 4.10 is the first version to bundle NetWare for OS/2 for no extra cost; previously it was available only as a paid-for add-on to NetWare 4.01. Its also the second-to-last version to support running on OS/2 (NetWare 4.11 was the last). It can be installed from the regular NetWare 4.10 Operating System CD and appears run fine on OS/2 Warp 3 under VirtualBox.

It runs under KVM! To see the full installation process documented with an excruciatingly large number of screenshots, see the Installing NetWare 4.1 in KVM page. There are also screenshots showing a few optional post-insall steps:
The process is much the same as for NetWare 4.11, just with less hardware autodetection:
These are the minimum patches Novell recommends applying as a baseline (as of 1 March 2000). Its probably best to apply them in order starting with the oldest.
