4OS2 is a replacement for CMD.EXE -- and 4DOS is a replacement for
COMMAND.COM.  If you try them, you'll never go back.

Both products are sold.  They are available directly from J.P.
Software or can be downloaded as shareware.  Of course you already
know you are supposed to pay for shareware and the only difference
between shareware and commercial software is the distribution method
and the fact that you can try it on your own system before buying.

There is a rumor floating around that it can be done, but I don't
believe it.  (If this were AFU, I would post that as an ObUl...)

There is a short list of supported SCSI adapters and a short list of
supported CD ROM drives.  In order for the CD install to work, both of
yours (adapter card and drive) must be on both of these (lists).

Good luck!

Why?  Anyone (not only registered OS/2 2.0 users) can join DAP and
order the beta for $15, which is nothing more than a shipping and
manufacturing charge, and you know it.

Nobody would use this beta for their working system, since it's slow
(full of debugging code), and bug-ridden, and will not be upgraded to
the release version of 2.1 without proof of purchase for 2.0 anyway.

There may have been some legal problems with copyright anwyay, but
it's certainly not to protect IBM from lost profits!  Do you think
that it affects IBM any differently if people get it for free or for
$1.50 each? ($15 for a 10-copy site license)

What does this preaching have to do with the OS/2 2.1 beta?  Or do you

I too have HPFS.  I have much more than just the WPS running.  PSTAT puts

Hopefully you will not be flamed too much for not knowing this, but OS/2
may be installed in and booted from an extended partition, thus preserv-
ing visibility of the primary partition to OS/2.  This is exactly the
arrangement I use right now: a primary partition containing a bootable
MSDOS and all of my MSDOS stuff including WINDOWS and an extended parti-
tion containing OS/2.  To make this work, I have the boot manager instal-
led -- this software allows booting from an extended partition (and from
drive 2, as well).  Thus, all my MSDOS environment is visible (though not
necessarily useful) whenever I boot OS/2.  Indeed, since I am using 4DOS,
I am able to reuse my C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT for my DOS command line environment
under OS/2.  Further, thanks to 4DOS, I also have separate AUTOEXEC files
for WINOS2 and for DOS programs started from icons.  I can have a differ-
ent AUTOEXEC for each DOS program and each separate WINOS2 session if
necessary.

hi,

from the postings i've seen on the 2.1 beta (since i arrived back from
vacation) it appears to me that it is not possible to install the 2.1
beta directly from the cd-rom i.e. you have to create floppies from the
cd-rom and then install.  is this in fact the case?  or am i mistaken
(hopefully) and it's possible to install directly?

if i can't install from the cd, i will likely wait for the release
version rather than betting the beta (does anyone have a target date for
the real thing?)

please post, as others may find this info useful.

thanks in advance!

I think that HARDERR.EXE is in control of the swapping

It's active
all of the time, on all systems, whether HPFS or FAT.

Hi all,

  I have an interesting problem trying to get OS/2 running in an SVGA mode.
Specifically, I have an old Paradise-based AST video card with 256K that
I'd like to run at 800x600x16 resolution, using Joel's excellent drivers.
The trouble is that I can't seem to get SVGA ON to work.  When I try it,
the result is:

C:\OS2>svga on

SVGA: PMI File Generator (v1.01).
Usage: SVGA <ON | OFF>

which is rather discouraging.  Does this reflect some strange incompatability
with my video card?  I'm kinda confused...

Subject: Dual HD Setup Recommendations
Date: 5 Jan 93 18:30:42 GMT
Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology

I have recently acquired a 660 Mb ESDI hard drive for a machine at work.
This machine currently has a 330 Mb ESDI drive that is about full, mostly
with DOS applications. It runs OS/2 and DOS (dual boot), and the 330 HD
is formatted for FAT (a single partition). I would like to have all the DOS
programs and current/future data files accessible from DOS, yet give OS/2
some HPFS space, if that will make it run more efficiently. Some questions:

1) How should I best set up the drives so that I can preserve the dual boot
option (I need this for running some VCPI programs)?

2) Should I format the new drive under OS/2 or DOS? (FDISK?)

3) Would it be easier to wait for OS/2 2.1 to come out before connecting
the new drive, and then install OS/2 from scratch?

Any help/opinions/caveats are much appreciated.

Games that try to ignore DOS and directly read hard-drive sectors
(like Lemmings) fail when trying to read a drive under OS/2.  They
can't directly access any sectors, and under specific DOS sessions,
they think they're using network drives.  So they always ask for the
key disk in drive A:, when they can't directly access it on your hard
drive.

At least that's my theory.

Odd, I too have a VGA-1024, and it works fine.  I can e-mail you my
svgadata.pmi file if you wish.  I use an 800x600x256 WIN-OS2 desktop,
which works fine.  Unfortunately, the Trident drivers don't set the
mode properly, so I'm SOL WRT a hi-res PM desktop at this time...

(I know about the Joel drivers, but I've gotten used to seamless Windows)

I have some details about VGA registers, so I can interpret most of
the SVGADATA.PMI file, but there is one block which I believe to be
ATI-specific, where ports at location 0x1ce and 0x1cf are accessed.
Once I get specs on that, I may be able to jury-rig my own
svgadata.pmi file.

Try running "SVGA ON DOS", and copy the resulting svgadata.dos file
over your svgadata.pmi file.  That's the only way I could generate the
file from native DOS.

Me too.  So all those neat XL-based drivers don't seem to do anything

Subject: More Installation Questions...

I have a lot of programs on my HD.  The TNT, FAQ and Redbooks indicate that one
should reformat the HD before installation of OS2.  After the OS2 install where
do you install the Windows programs (WinWord and Excel?)? in WIN/OS2 or OS2?
