(1) Boot your Installation Disk.
(2) When you are asked to insert Disk 1, do so, and press Enter.
(3) When you are asked to press Esc or Enter, press Esc.
(4) When the command line prompt appears, insert Disk 2.

You can definitely RIPL (Remote Initial Program Load) a diskless PC's
from an IBM Lan Server.  With OS/2 1.x you could only boot a DOS system
but with OS/2 2.0 LAN Server you can boot an OS/2 system.

You do need some extra ROM's on the network adapter to do this.  All
IBM's T/R adapters now come with this ROM as standard.

I believe that within IBM hardware this can be done over Token Ring,
PC LAN and Ethernet.  I do not know if it is available on other
manufacturers boards.

Subject: Backup from FAT to HPFS?
Organization: University of Waterloo
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1992 22:59:42 GMT

  Is it possible to backup a drive which contains dos and os/2 stuff on FAT
drives and then restore them onto a freshly formatted HPFS drive?
  I want to run HPFS, but right now my drive is one 330MB FAT partition.  I
am getting a tape backup, but for now I don't want to have to wait to
install OS/2.  I want to install it now, then back up everything, reformat
it for HPFS and then put everything back (including OS/2 and it's stupid
EA's).  I have an Adaptec card and SCSI tape backup so I should be able
to use GNU tar and keep all of the OS/2 things.  I am wondering if there
will be other problems.  Since EA's probably live differently on FAT and
HPFS partitions, how can I deal with them?  As a last resort, can I at
least backup of all of my dos things and then re-install OS/2?

Thanks in advance,
Mark Pundsack

I would prefer online docs with a minimum of printed docs and have the
option of buying a printed versions of the online docs.  This makes
the package cheaper, but you still have docs talking about how to
install the software and what to do if the installation goes awry.
Also, online docs save trees, and, since computers are a lot better at
manipulating information, I like online docs better (so I can search
easily and not have to rely on a usually inadequate index).

People who want printed docs can pay for them, just like people pay
for C compilers and network software.  People who don't, pay less.

This must have been fixed for GA thank Diety.  CHKDSK /F from the floppy on
the betas was a no-op.  Any EA problems persisted.

This means that the backup problem is solved without investing in new
EA aware backup software.  Dual boot to DOS, dump, restore to anywhere,
run CHKDSK /F from install and all should be well.  As soon as I get GA
I will see.  Since that point in the next epoch is indeterminate I wish
someone else with a touch of madness would try it and report.

Not optimum, but for me the only path without a hardware reinvestment
since Sytron ceased supporting my CMS Enhancements controller.

Well, there was some mis-information given to you, but the bottom line
is that they DID NOT have the upgrade copies so you probably want to wait
for the cheaper upgrrade copies to arrive. You could not have purchased
the ones they received as upgrades. Period.

>(Why they only ordered 10 copies to start

The initial 10 was sort of a trial to see how well it was going to sell.
10 is somewhere near the number of copies of OS/2 previous releases
sold so far... I don't blame them. I asked what was on order presently
and there are 20 full copies (15 3.5", 5 5.25"), 15 DOS upgrades (10 3.5",
5 5.25"), and 25 Windows upgrades (20 3.5", 5 5.25")

Does anyone have any more info on how this SVGA ON/OFF is supposed

I typed SVGA ON in a full screen DOS box and it correctly identified
my card as a ET4000 chipset (Orchid PD II).  It inserted the line in
the config.sys that it's supposed to insert.

About 25% of the time I power up, flipping between a SVGA DOS box and
WPS works just fine.  But all the other times I power up, it doesn't
work.  The behavior remains consistent until the next time I reboot,
when sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't.

Anybody have any ideas what's going on?  Is this to be expected since
I don't have a PD IIs?

I suspect that you think this is a worse fate than I do.  :-)

I wasn't there, but here is my impression of the causes of the problems:

* fundamental disagreements over how to do things, leading to arguments 
* too many people trying to make decisions
* code development at several geographically distant locations, and then
  problems with merging the results together
* a clash of different management styles


> I gather from news reports/magazines that Microsoft was causing most of

It depends on who you talk to.  The opinion at MS is that IBM caused most
of the problems.  Part of this is just fallout from the fundamental
disagreements over how to do things; the classic one was where IBM
insisted on "improving" the PM interface to where it was grossly
incompatible with Windows.  They succeeded -- PM was improved -- but now it
is really hard to port Windows programs to OS/2 and vice versa.  Since MS
and IBM disagree on whether this was a good idea, both companies think the
other company was causing a problem over the issue.


> I've even heard that the FTC may be investigating Msoft for purpose

This is just plain wrong.  The FTC got interested in Microsoft when it
heard that Microsoft had agreed with IBM to attempt to limit sales of
Windows.  Believe it or not, that was the issue.  Once they started their
investigation, many companies complained about the way Microsoft runs their
business.  MS is cooperating in the investigation, and believes the FTC
won't find anything to prosecute.  (My source for this: _PC Week_.)

No one has ever accused MS of delaying OS/2, and OS/2 has never been "under
their control".  IBM has always held the reigns; for a while, MS was
holding onto them too, but there has never been a time when MS had them and
IBM didn't.

why on earth is IBM showing its own PS/2 running Windows?

Just a quick note...

I managed to attend the OS/2 show in baltimore this morning (Wed, 15 Apr 1992).
I won't bore you with a complete show report, as it was similiar to what others
had to say.  However, some highlights:

The free give-aways:  Walking in directly before the show started, I sat down 
in a recently placed seat (standing room only!  :^).  The speaker (Andy
Something-or-another) noticed that he would be standing in my view of the
screen and advised that I pick a chair a few seats to the side.  He then said
that because I sat down directly in front of someone who had been there for
awhile, blocking that person's view, that he deserved a copy of the OS.
(John moves over, grumbling about the unfairness of the universe...)  The
room was mostly full of suits, including the IBM folk.  (Andy did mention
that because of the relations with Apple, he no longer wears socks, though.
:^)  John did walk away with a free copy of OS/2, though.  :^)  Luck of the
draw...

For those waiting for the Extended Services, he did mention 24 April.  Plus,
you *can* run Database Manager, Communications Manager, and Lan Manager from
the 1.x EE packages on 2.0.

After the show, I happened into a Software, Etc. (In the Harbourplace Gallery,
for you Baltimorons..  :^) holding my prized possession to look for the
Deital and K... book.  The manager noticed my box and was very excited that
someone actually had one.  He said that he is trying to get them in stock, and
that he will definitely have them as soon as he can get them.  (He isn't even
waiting for Software, Etc.'s normal shipments, but is trying to get them in
sooner through a dealer...)

A succesful trip.  The room was full of happy people anticipating OS/2 2.0,
and a finally found a saleperson actually biting at the bit to get a supply
for his store.

We would also like to know if IBM is going to give some presentations in the
