Question : Cannot load COMMAND.COM after 6.5 upgrade
|
|
Okay guys, here goes:
Today I upgraded a Netware 6.0sp4 server to Netware 6.5 (not SuSe Linux ver). All seemed to go fairly well until the reboot at the end of all the installation, clean up, etc. The server booted to the Novell screen, stayed there awhile, then the monitor went black for a couple of minutes. Next came a blinking cursor in the upper left hand corner. After what seemed like forever I got the following: Unable to EXEC server (insufficient memory?). Cannot load the file c:\COMMAND.COM Insert correct disk and strike any key.
Now understand that I am in NO WAY a Netware expert, but I'm all they've got, so I need some help here. In baby steps (please?).
The server has 1GB RAM, is a Compaq ProLiant ML350 -G3. Three 18.2 GB hard drives , RAID 0. Sorry I don't remember the processor

So you're at a command prompt?That is good. If that is so ,then it looks as if something in the autoexec.ncf is causing the server to go kaput.
Load nwconfig and post what is in the autoexec.ncf
I think what we need to do is look for a line that might be loading some Compaq utility.
I am thinking Compaq Insight managermight be the culprit. If so ,we need to rem it out.
