NetWare 6.x

NetWare 6.x

Novel NetWare was an early and powerful network/file sharing operating system. It was first released in 1983 and supported DOS and CP/M clients and was initially unique in that it shared individual files rather than entire disk volumes. Initially servers ran on a proprietary Motorola 68000 system but quickly changed to IBM PC where it supported a very wide variety of third party hardware. It used a cooperative tasking server environment and had some advanced features usually only found in mainframe products.

On VirtualBox (7.0.x), even if you create your virtual machine with the Netware settings, you must check "Enable PAE/NX" (Settings -> System -> Processor) else STARTUP\SERVER.EXE will fail to run with the following error message:

This Pentium class machine (or greater) lacks some required CPU feature(s).
NETWARE 6 CANNOT BE RUN ON THIS MACHINE!!!

Also do not pre-install MS-DOS 6.22 in the virtual machine, just boot on the Netware CD else the Netware will crash at startup with a critical error.
