30 MB of available disk space on the DOS partition. The recommended total size of the DOS partition is 100 MB.
1 GB minimum available disk space on volume SYS:. However, the total recommended size of volume SYS: is 2 GB.

You must already have a server running NetWare 6 in your tree in order to use NetWare Accelerated Upgrade. If you do not already have a server running NetWare 6, do an inplace upgrade on a server in your tree, and then upgrade the rest of the servers in your tree with NetWare Accelerated Upgrade.
