I am trying to do a fresh install of Netware 5.1 on server with a LSILogic Ultra SCSI RAID Adapter. When I get to the point to install the drivers for the storage adapter, I choose ins to add a driver that is not listed. I then search the floppy drive for the mega4_xx.ham file. The search comes back with a blank line and says choose a driver to install. I can't get past this point. Does anyone have a suggestion?

After you choose to go to A:\, does it show that as the path?
Have you looked at the floppy to make sure the file isn't zipped or in a directory?
Not too many other thoughts at this point, unless the driver is wrong.

I 've seen this one before.There seems to be a bug in the install program.
I would try the install using an overlay CD from the Novell web site .
Otherwise how I have gotton around this "feature"
is to CTL-ESC back to the command line while on that screen and load the driver manually and continue the install.
After it is installed ,I would edit the startup.ncf to load the driver and copy it to the NWSERVER driver directory on the DOS partition.
