I would suggest to use a program like UltraISO, to extract the BootFile from the original CD and save it to your harddisk. Then Create a new in UltraISO, click Bootable from the menu, choose 'Load Boot File.' And give it the bootfile, you've saved previously. In addition, drag and drop all the files of the netware 6.5 CD, you've copied to your harddisk, to the new CD image in UltraISO and save the ISO file. When done, use your favorite burning tool and create a new CD from the ISO file. Let us know, if the problem is solved!!!
Thanks paulsep for your quick response against my query. I want to say that those files/folders I backed up erliare is all I've now. In short my original cd is not readable and almost damaged.

Is there a way to extract boot files from that folder where I backed it up or any other idea to put those files on a cd which make it bootable.I've tried nero for this purpose it make the cd Dos boot able it put some files Dr,DOS etc. I then Add all my backup files on it but when I boot from cd it does not appear to be as it was original. How can I make bootable cd from those files or one more thing I am not sure about that there may be some hidden files on that cd which required to boot from cd but the size on my disk and cd was the same I don't know whats going wrong with it. Please any other suggestion or trick? Hello paulsep, today I've burn that cd including that boot files. Let me explain you step by step what I did. Using UltraISO I first went to the menu Bootable then pointed to Load Boot Files.from Load Boot File open dialog I selected the file you NW65OS.bif after that I draged all Novell 6.5 files(Including folders) to UltraISO then I renamed the CD Volum Label to NW65OS.
Then I went to to the menu File and selected the option save and saved the iso file. After doing this I burnt the ISO file with Nero Express to new Blank CD but now when I boot from this CD it hang up on booting. I mean it does not boot up. There may be a mistake while this whole process, if yes please let me know where I am wrong.
Yes, the steps are correct: 1. Under the toolbar, there is an entry called Image with a field stating 'Data CD/DVD'.
Click the properties icon at the right side of this field and choose Media 703 MB and click ok. Then, menu UltraISO / Bootable / Load Bootfile. Load the bootfile I uploaded for you. Drag and drop all the files and folders of your Netware 6.5 OES to the new image, you'd like to create. Change the Label of the new image to NW65OS 5. Save the image to harddisk 6.
Use Nero to burn the newly created image to CD. Let us know, if the problem is solved!!! Yes I've downloaded the iso images OES2-i386-CD1.iso and OES2-x8664-CD1.iso but these both are not same as mine (backup files).it has something like this on root media.1 suse archives,gz autorun.inf autorun.sh ChangeLog content content.asc. May be I am making mistake to choose the right one which is same like mine. Let me know if you want me to send you some or one particular file by which you can understand which version I've.as for me I've OES as it was written on cd.
Now I don't know which iso to download those OES from download link does not match with mine. Don't know why.:( may that version(iso) exist on that link can you point out me to that?

Hi, I have just purchased a new Desktop Computer with Windows 7 Professional on it Specs are Dual Core Processor, 300GB HDD, 2GB RAM. I also installed VirtualBox 4 on this Machine. I also had an old PC having Novell Netware 4.11 Server Installed on a 2GB HDD. A few Thin Client (Disk Less Nodes) used to boot through a RPL Boot Rom and attached them selves to this computer. I decided not to have a dedicated PC for Netware, therefore I created an Virtual Hard Drive Image of the Netware's Computer Hard Disk and Attached it to a Virtual PC in the VirtualBox. As expected the Netware Server Started off smoothly in the VirtualBox. Then I changed the network driver to match that of the virtualbox.
So far so Good.Here is the Problem I am facing. But amazingly I can attach to the Virtual Netware Server and see all its content browsing through WinXP's Netware Networks (having Microsoft Netware Client Installed as provided by Microsoft in WinXP). It would be a great help if anybody can tell me how to boot diskless nodes off this virtual server so created. Thanks Akshay.
