NetWare 4.1

Patches and notes about Netware 4.10.

Contents

NetWare for OS/2

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.

Virtualisation - Linux-KVM

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:
