Good news! After some digging, I found that the manufacturers of this specific board opted for the Intel 82562GZ. Doing some research on it now!

Edit1: Seems as if it's a simple Intel Pro 100 driver? Pity it doesn't work for me.
"Error: Unable to locate the NIC"

Edit2: I installed the latest E100 drivers from Intel's site and it worked :D

I actually get a lovely message stating:

"Realtek RTL8169 OS/2 NDIS MAC Driver ver.1.13 (2008-08-04) Device not found."

Hmmm...

Any ideas guys?

(I tried GenMacs, but obviously it didn't work :( )

Setup & Installation / OS/2 Warp 3 - Onboard Network Driver
« on: 2010.04.22, 09:30:14 »
Hey guys, Me again!

I'm looking for On-Board network drivers for the Intel Little Falls 2
(Intel® Desktop Board D945GCLF2/D945GCLF2D with integrated Intel® Atom™ processor)

The LAN Chipset is: 10/100/1000 Mbits/sec LAN subsystem using Realtek 8111C GbE LAN adapter device

Any idea where I could find the driver? (I've tried hobbes)

Thanks all for the input!

I'll give it a go this morning :)

Hey RobertM,

FDISK reports that the partition status is 'Startable'
Also that Access is 'C: Primary' with FS Type 'HPFS'

Partition size is 8001MB

Ok! Sooo...

I REMed out:

BASEDEV=SONYCDS1.FLT
BASEDEV=SONY535.ADD
BASEDEV=SONY31A.ADD

I also tried the a:sysinstx c: and I get the following error message:

The type of file system for the disk is HPFS.
The system files have been transferred.

I'm sorry to burden you with the OS/2 issues  :(

Edit: lol, I thought that was an error message... Maybe I should read, or maybe I'm just expecting the OS not to work. Must be my negativity  ;D
hehe, anyways, it's still standing still at the point where it's suppose to boot.

I've tried a clean install without the boot loader partition as well (Same issue)

Admittedly, getting Warp 3 to install on modern hardware isn't for the faint of heart!

That's no lie!

I'm going to give it a go this morning and will give feedback as soon as I can.

Ok! Sooo I made time for this because I was very optimistic  :)

When I try and boot off the HDD after part 1 of the installation, the PC just doesn't boot.
It just sits at the place you expect the OS/2 Warp 3 screen.

So I boot off the floppies and do the changes you recommend. (I copied the ADD files as well and changed the config.sys as well)

No luck! Still just sits like it wants to boot, but doesn't.

Any insight? (I'm going to take a look at the issue again tomorrow)

Fahrvenugen, you are amazing for remembering :)

It went past the 70% mark and completed the first part of the setup.

Unfortunately for me, I'm unable to work on this for now. (I've got more pressing concerns)

I'll work on it again next week.

Thanks again all!

Fahrvenugen: Wow, thank you for that detailed information!

13. After advanced installer Part 1 finished (the text screen installer), it would not boot (just loop booted)

Is this after the installer copies the files to the HDD?
(Because my installation crashes around 70% copying files to the HDD)

Edit: Also, I feel guilty for asking, do you think it's possible for you to create floppy images for me and upload to a public server?

11
I'm more than willing to wait Ivan, Thanks!

I've tried jjscdrom.dmd with no success

Anything else?  :-\

I'm now using Dani1S506 v1.6.6 with daniatapi0314 & danidasd144. (Eldest I could find)

Now it complains about os2cdrom.dmd on startup and it doesn't find the CD-ROM drive...

OS/2 is tiresome!  ???

14
Thanks for the reply. F.I.Y.

With the latest versions I actually get this far:

Advanced Installation -> Accept the Drive -> "WARNING: The OS/2 Installation program does not recognize the file system on drive C"

I just ignore that error and continue the installation.

It stops however at around 75% of the copying with an error: "The system cannot find the file specified."

15
OK! I've patched the floppy disk with the danis506r185 driver coupled with the daniatapi040 driver because my CD-ROM wasn't working without it :)
(IDE 80GB HDD, IDE CD-ROM)

I use FDISK on another machine and partition the drive correctly (8GB for the primary, and 8GB for the logical - I need nothing more)

As soon as I try and install warp3 it tells met that FDISK encounters an error (Standard or advanced)
FDISK on the installation CD tells me I've got 33GB space in total.

Edit1: When I let OS/2 handle the partitions on it's own it creates a partition the site of 8032MB and gives a format error (Something about the size being greater than 35MB)

Edit2: But I can format the drive manually with the format utility on the cd... (Format c: /fs:hpfs)

Edit3: When trying to install now onto that partition I get an error "OS/2 Installation program does not recognize the file system on drive C"

Edit4: I've confirmed the command "SET COPYFROMFLOPPY=1" is the first entry in my config.sys on the installation floppies.

Edit5: I don't know what changed, but I can see my whole drive now :o But I'm still having the issue @ Edit1 (\OS2IMAGE_001 - Greater than 35MB primary partition exist - Formatting fixed disk)

Edit6: I've updated to danidasd144 as well, no change
