		    NOVELL 16-BIT ODI DRIVER FOR DOS WITH
                       THE HP DESKDIRECT LAN ADAPTER

 The Novell 16-bit Open Datalink Interface (ODI) driver for DOS is used with
 many Novell products.  DOS and Microsoft Windows 3.x computers gain access
 to Novell servers through either:
 
     NetWare DOS Requester (using Virtual Loadable Modules or VLMs)
     NetWare DOS Shell     (using NETX.EXE)    
 
 Both NetWare clients use an ODI driver to enable them to use the LAN adapter
 to access the LAN media.  File service to all versions of NetWare servers is
 possible from either the DOS Requester or DOS Shell clients.  Access to
 enhanced services provided by later versions of NetWare servers may require
 using the DOS Requester.
 
 Other Novell products, like Personal NetWare and LAN Workplace for DOS, also 
 use the DOS ODI driver.
 
 The DOS ODI drivers are located within the DOS directory, so that the
 NetWare DOS Requester INSTALL utility can automatically locate the driver. 

 The contents of this directory are:

     \DOS\README.VLM   - installation instructions for DOS Requester
     \DOS\README.WFW   - installation instructions for DOS Requester with

     \DOS\HPFEODIM.COM - bus-master mode 16-bit DOS ODI driver
     \DOS\HPFEODIM.INS - DOS ODI installation file for HPFEODIM.COM
     \DOS\HPFEODI.COM  - I/O-memory mode 16-bit DOS ODI driver
     \DOS\HPFEODI.INS  - DOS ODI installation file for HPFEODI.COM
     \DOS\NET.CFG      - sample NET.CFG file


 There are two DOS ODI drivers contained in the \DOS directory:
 The HPFEODIM.COM driver uses the bus-master data transfer mode of the HP
 DeskDirect LAN adapter; the HPFEODI.COM driver uses the I/O-mapped or
 memory-mapped data tranfer mode of the HP DeskDirect LAN adapter. It is
 recommended that users use bus-master data transfer mode to achieve the
 highest performance of the HP DeskDirect LAN adapter.
 
 If the HP DeskDirect LAN adapter is a PCI adapter and is installed in a
 slot which does not support PCI bus-master operation, then the HPFEODI.COM
 driver may be used.
