To format USB flash or HDD to FAT32 you can use ReFormat utility

it's shareware (subscription)

Setup & Installation / Re: ArcaOS install - can't create partition
« on: May 28, 2017, 11:22:58 am »
1) To install Windows and OS/2 to one harddrive, you should format all partitions from OS/2. Then install Windows, then install OS/2.
It is recommended install OS/2 to new harddrive always.

2) If ArcaOS installer refuses to install and offers "Fix partition", again and again, then
* convert GPT to MBR (if necessary)
* try remove existing windows partitions using shareware Windows disk tools (Arconis, Paragon)

Hardware / Re: New Laptop with AMD Processor
« on: September 15, 2016, 12:47:13 am »
one more example - laptop repair services even don't spend efforts to reanimate the laptops with AMD. It doesn't give income to them, the problem will appear again in several monthes again.

So, when you select a laptop, always put AMD to the black list.

and one more argument for Intel: the users prefer Intel wifi adapters instead of Realtek and other "alternative" cheap adapters.

I don't recommend laptops with AMD.
as was mentioned, such laptops are cheap, warranty is short, the processors burn often.

OS/2 users select OS/2 instead of Windows but it is recommended use high quality hardware (Intel x Cisco x high-end Lenovo  x ..  )

38
It's not clear,
do they pay you 119 EURO if you take this computer?
Or you should pay 119 EURO?

I recommend:
* OS/2 2016 supports modern i3/i5/i7 computers
* or buy used  brand desktop (ThinkCentre, HP, Dell)

Setup & Installation / Re: OS/2 installation on ThinkPad T420
« on: July 05, 2016, 05:43:03 pm »
Yes, I agree,  Thinkpad T420 works fine with OS/2 5-th generation (ACPI, modern kernel).

If you want inserted disk from other PC, then
* verify what video driver is installed. Install Panorama VESA
* temporary disable USB drivers (if IBM USB drivers)

General Discussion / Building OS/2 roadmap: IF .. THEN .. ELSE ..
« on: May 05, 2016, 02:11:42 am »

It's 2016 year but nobody knows what way to select for OS/2.

First of all, eComStation development was going with
participation / support of professional people.
On the other side we understand that we were missing more recommendations
(More consultants, more analysis)
As result, eComStation project made several mistakes
(RUS: http://ecomstation.ru/showarticle.php?id=267,
RUS: http://ecomstation.ru/showarticle.php?id=294)

Every OS/2 user (ex-user) is professional in own own area (profession)
and can give recommendations based on own experience.

Let's collect thesis IF .. THEN ..  -- http://os2.guru/ifthen
to understand which choice is wrong, and which changes will help to achieve success.

General Discussion / Re: Forecast for Arca Noae's OS/2
« on: April 26, 2016, 10:07:44 pm »
There are eternal barriers and temporary critical problems.

Temporary critical bugs / problems:

3) Uniaud doesn't work properly on modern computers

..

8) New users ask about test CD which will give report about compatibility of PC with OS/2

9) Memory leaks in MMOS2 / IO Procs.
