Wow man...who messed around with your breakfast cereal today???
Dude, take a "chill pill" if you must...no one on this forum provides feedback with a "guaranteed to work" clause, but for sure these are all intended to be (hopefully) useful suggestions.
What is going on here recently...???

What happens if you "cd" to let's say \os2\dll and try to fire it up from there?
lvmgui.cmd is in \os2, and if you start that up it'll look for lvmgui.zip in your CLASSPATH or directly in \os2\javaapps.

If OS2\DLL would not be correctly in the libpath OS/2 would most not even start up...

Sure...reasonable conclusion on your part, but did I actually say THAT "OS2\DLL" got removed from LIBPATH???
I think not!

Wel what can "wrong with your libpath". The DLL's in in \os2\dll are in that location unless you copy them manually to different places.
That could cause issue's. However I have never seen anybody do that. So what else could "wrong with your libpath".
The error message does not point in that direction.
The issue is that the LVM engine is having an issue. Its a DLL loading issue.

I tried running LVM GUI, and nothing happened. Went to command line, and running the lvm command shows that it does not work anymore.. no idea why (maybe some INI cleanup at boot time that messed up an LVM-related setting?).
Has anyone experienced that problem ? If yes, how did you solve it?
Thanks for any help!

Run from an OS/2 command line LVM /startlog:C:\lvm.log. Then we can see what is possibly happening.

Hi
I hope that my suggestions does not sound dangerous.
1) I think it will be good to take an "testlog generic" report and post it here to see how ArcaOS recognizes the HDDs.
2) Can you double check the attached virtual drives on the VirtualBox host, just to be sure you are pointing right to the two virtual HDD files?
