The  Compaq  70MB  system can be configured as  a  standard  mode
server under EtherSeries 2.4.

Compaq  will allow only 4 partitions,  and there can be one  (and
only  one) partition which is more than 10 MB (not enough buffers
to cache the FAT problem).  We recommend the drive be partitioned
as  follows:   3-10 MB and 1-30 MB.   The 30 MB partition can  be
designated as any drive c,  d,  e, or f.  Because of the overhead
required for the network on drive c, we recommend that drive c be
10 MB.  This way all of the 30 MB partition will be available for
large volumes.

You  must also increase the CIOSYS buffers to 25.   To  do  this,
boot the PC which is the server, EXIT TO DOS WITHOUT STARTING THE
SERVER.   Edit  the file \ETHERSHR\ETHERSTD.BAT so the line which
says CIOSYS 16 says CIOSYS 25.
