Unattended Installation of IBM Auto 16/4 Token Ring Adapter

• Microsoft Windows NT Workstation versions 3.5 and 3.51
• Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5 and 3.51

SUMMARY

This article describes how you can perform an unattended installation of the IBM Auto 16/4 token ring adapter in Windows NT.

MORE INFORMATION

NOTE: Before you start the unattended installation of the token ring adapter, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base regarding the OEMSETUP.INF file for IBMTOK4.SYS:

   TITLE     : IBM 16/4 Auto Token Ring Adapter Driver Causes Event ID 7000

1. Create a directory on your hard disk drive. For example: c:\ibmtok4

2. Copy all the files in the I386 directory of the Windows NT 3.51 compact disc to c:\ibmtok4:

3. Copy IBMTOK4.SYS from the \drvlib\netcard\x86\ibmtok4 directory on the Windows NT compact disc to c:\ibmtok4.

4. Expand the following files in c:\ibmtok4 by typing the following:

         expand oemnadtk.in_ oemnadtk.inf
   

         expand ntlanman.in_ ntlanman.inf
   

5. Make a copy of DOSNET.INF by typing the following in c:\ibmtok4:

         copy dosnet.inf dosnet.bak
   

6. Rename the *.IN_ files in c:\ibmtok4 to *.BAK by typing the following:

         ren oemnadtk.in_ oemnadtk.bak
   

         ren ntlanman.in_ ntlanman.bak
   

7. Change a few lines in OEMNADTK.INF to read as follows:

         ProductSoftwareName     = "IbmTok4"
         ProductSoftwareImagePath = "\SystemRoot\System32\drivers\ibmtok4.sys"
         ProductHardwareName     = "IbmTok4"
   
         [Files-IBMTok]
         19,IBMTOK4.SYS , SIZE=25600
   
         [OptionsTextENG]
         IBMTOK     = "IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring Adapter"
         FunctionTitle   = "IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring Adapter Card Setup"
         ProductSoftwareDescription      = "IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring Adapter
                                            Driver"
         ProductHardwareDescription      = "IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring Adapter"
         ProductSoftwareTitle    = "IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring Adapter Driver"
         ProductHardwareTitle    = "IBM Auto 16/4 Token-Ring Adapter"
   
   

8. In DOSNET.INF, change:

         d1,ibmtok.sys
   

         to
   

         d1,ibmtok4.sys
   

9. Change a line in NTLANMAN.INF to read as follows:

         set AdapterSrcDir = $(!OEMNetDrive) - use to read $(OEMNetDrive)
   

10. Create an answer file (for example: IBMTOK.TXT) in c:\ibmtok4.

        You may create the answer file using the Setup Manager included in the
        Windows NT Resource Kit version 3.51. The following is a recommended
        content of IBMTOK.TXT:
    

           [Unattended]
           Method = express
           ConfirmHardware = no
           NtUpgrade = no
           Win31Upgrade = no
           TargetPath = \WINNT35
    

           [GuiUnattended]
           !DetachedProgram = ""
           !Arguments = ""
           !SetupNetwork = "YES"
           !SetupApplications = "NO"
           !TimeZone = "(GMT-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada)"
    

           [UserData]
           !FullName = "Name"
           !OrgName = "Company"
           !ComputerName = "IBMTOK4"
           !ProductId = "xxxxxxxx-xxx"
    

           ;The NetworkAdapterData and AdapterParameters section for the
           ;configuration of the IBM Auto 16/4 Token Ring Adaper.
    

           [NetworkAdapterData]
           !AutoNetOption = "IBMTOK"
    

           [AdapterParameters]
           IoBaseAddress = 1
           MediaType = 2
           NetworkAddress = ""
    

           [TransportData]
           !InstallNWLink = 1
           !AUTONETIPXFRAMETYPE = 255
           !InstallTCPIP = 0
           !InstallNetBEUI = 1
    

           [DomainData]
           !AutoWorkGroup = "WORKGROUP"
    

11. To start the unattended installation of the IBM Auto 16/4 token ring

        adapter, type the following at the command prompt (make sure you are
        in c:\ibmtok4):
    

           winnt /s:x:\ /t:c: /u:x:\ibmtok.txt  /b
