Hi Robert and Ivan,
I am unsure as to why the Celeron PC would not boot to a CD. It was set in the BIOS to boot to CD first, then to hard drive second. I tried the CD drive as master, as slave, on Primary and Secondary controllers, and I even ripped out the drive and put another one in, but nothing made the PC boot. It did not matter what hard drive was in, or what type of bootable CD was in, I tried my bootable Easeus DiskCopy 2.3 CD, Windows 2000, Windows NT, and Windows 95 CDs, and no matter what I did the PC just said "Missing Operating System". I then put the hard drive into a fairly similar PC system with a 700MHz Celeron, and it booted to CD flawlessly. I finally got a working, booting clone of my OS/2 Warp3 Connect hard drive. I can now fiddle around with it without fear of losing everything as I have the original drive kept safe.
Once booted into OS/2, however, the CD drive does not show up under "Drives" or in the Win3.11 File Manager. So, any chance of loading software off the Hobbes CD is out, at least for the time being.
