Novell boots off of Dos. First DOS loads, the the autoexec.bat files loads nwserver which loads Novell. Boot from a Windows 98 boot disk. Then when you get to a DOS prompt, change to the c drive by typing c: change to the nwserver directory, then type "server -na" (without the quotes of course ;-) which will load Netware without running the autoexec.ncf The netware files may be in a different directory than nwserver. If there is not an nwserver directory, search by using the dir command:
dir nwserver*.* /s
Then you can run vrepair at the server console prompt.
Example
c:> cd nwserver
c:\nwserver:>server -na (OR SERVER -NS IF IT IS REALLY HOSED)
vrepair
