You need to have server.exe, install, sbackup, smdr, etc, plus your disk
driver on the DOS partition so that you can load enough of NetWare to
create the SYS volume and reload from tape.

The best form of NetWare disaster recovery I have come across is a product
called Replica from Stac. It not only backups up the NetWare volumes but
also the partition table and DOS partition. If the server disk crashes, all
you need to do is put in a new disk and boot off the disaster recovery
floppies that Replica creates, and it will automatically recover the entire
server.
