issue

The NetWare 5 Accelerated Upgrade utility is intended for use by system administrators who are skilled at troubleshooting NetWare networks. It is a text-based utility that allows you to quickly upgrade a NetWare 4.1x server to NetWare 5 without having to be at the server console or install a CD-ROM drive on the server. It also allows you to upgrade a NetWare 4.1x server that has only 32 MB of RAM (instead of the 64 MB of RAM normally required for NetWare 5 installation). Novell's Information Services and Technology department has used the Accelerated Upgrade utility to upgrade several hundred production servers at Novell to NetWare 5.
