Please let Pete know that you have that mirror. He appreciates knowing so he can send people other places to get that filebase instead of hitting up his own
personal bandwidth.

Later,
Sean

eComStation is preferred and is what I am running here.

I'm running ECS as well, but other people have got warp4 running under Virtualbox. What VM are you using?

Virtual PC :) I have VMs for native MS-DOS, Debian and WinXP so far. The boot disk I downloaded just crashes on install ... where can I get a viable OS/2 bootable ISO?

I don't think you'll get it with VirtualPC.

You'd probably have to pay for Ecomstation. Sorry I can't help anymore.

virtual pc... is that the one that m$ bought that used to do OS/2 very nicely and they took specific steps to break it and prevent OS/2 from being usable??

AFAIK there isn't one other than i think eCS... all the previous ones had to boot from floppy...

eCS is different than the Warp's, though...

Yeah, in ways. Mainly in that it supports newer machines :) At least
the 2.2 beta does ;)
