Running Netware 4.x on top of OS/2 leaves the OS/2 multitasking operating 
system available for normal use and that system can also login to the Netware 
server running under OS/2. The NW and OS/2 operating systems have there own 
independant disk space na dthe  OS/2 drivers for the disk and the NIC are 
loaded first, then Netware uses a disk share disk driver and a lan share NIC 
driver instead of the more usual hardware dependant drivers. A very nice OS/2 
presentation manager utility also comes in the box to monitor the Netware 
server in an OS/2 task.

        Richard.
