OS/2 Warp 4 install notes

by Al Savage

These are notes I made to use while doing an install/reinstall, either on my own boxen or at clients' sites.

=Warp4 Install List= This is list of things to do for a new "Al S.-style" Warp4 install. DSL-enabled or LAN or modem-shared box is assumed (no dialer). Many of the apps/FPs are available at my ftp server: ftp://asavage.dyndns.org

Update Install Diskettes, Part 1
For the newer Extended Partition support [Extended type 0x0F and FAT type 0x0E] for all HDDs, plus support for IDE HDDs larger than 4.3GB. Primarily, this updates FDISK.com, FORMAT.com, PMFDISK.exe/dll (all to 14.082), and that's what we need for correct handling of extended partition types, but this package also updates the IDE storage driver IBM1S506.add (to 10.073) as well as OS2DASD.DMD (10.073), the kernel OS2KRNL (to 14.091) and OS2DUMP.

We will be updating IBM1S506.add later, and may or may not be updating the kernel further, but these updates have to be applied in this order, apparently.

Get EXPARTW4.exe from Al's server or from IBM directly, or if you care to wade through the IBM menu system, drill down :


 * Go to the bottom of the page, Select "I have read . . . AGREE . . .",


 * On the next page, choose "Miscellaneous Storage Support",


 * On the next page, choose "Enhanced IDE Support (IDEDASD)",


 * On the next page, choose "Extended Partition Support (for partitions beyond 1024 cyl)".
 * On the next page, about one screen down under "Package Name", choose, "OS/2 Version 4".

Diskettes 1, 2, & 3 are all updated.

The package instructions are good, so I won't repeat them here.

Update Install Diskettes, Part 2
For the newest:
 * IBM1S506.add, OS2CDROM.dmd (to 10.083),
 * OS2DASD.dmd (to 10.083 for W4, 14.091 for MCP),
 * IBM1FLPY.add, IBMIDECD.flt, IBMATAPI.flt (to 10.076).

Get IBMDASD.exe from Al's server or from IBM directly, or if you care to wade through the IBM menu system, drill down :


 * Go to the bottom of the page, Select "I have read . . . AGREE . . .",


 * On the next page, choose "CDROM Drives",


 * On the next page, choose "Enhanced IDE Support (IDEDASD)",


 * On the next page, choose "IDE DASD/CDROM Support".


 * On the next page, about one screen down under "Package Name", choose, "Enhanced IDE DASD and CDROM support".

Here are the instructions to update the Install Disk 1. Note that they recommend checking that the copy of the new files from the diskette to the HDD actually occurred during installation, by looking at the file dates in x:\OS2\BOOT. Good idea.

Be certain to add the lines to CONFIG.sys !

Don't install any video driver until all fixpacks are applied. Do install TCP/IP and File & Print Sharing (Peer) (unless you're going to install LanServer 5.0 over it, then Peer [Requester] is installed with the LS product). Set up your NIC/DSL/Cable "modem" during installation. Note: If you will be using Warp's "Remote Install" feature later, make sure that "OS/2 NetBIOS" is on Logical Adapter (LA) 0; Remote Install will NOT work if NetBIOS is not on LA zero! �� See [RemoteInstall.html Remote Install Notes] for more information.



Getting ahead of myself a bit: Using \TCPIP\BIN\TCPCFG.EXE (or TCPCFG2.cmd, if you have already installed TCP/IP v4.1 or later), make sure to check the "DHCP server is available on the network" box, if you're going to use DHCP.� If not using DHCP, select the HOSTNAMES tab and enter one or two DNS lookup IPs in the left "Nameserver Addresses" column. � This latter is not necessary with most DSL providers or with the later MPTS versions; later versions of MPTS have a better-behaved DHCP module and will properly query properly-behaved DSL DNS.



DHCP Options
If running DHCP, run DHCPMON.exe and compare the "Current Configuration" dialogue to this:



(yours may not look identical)

If you do not see lines indicating:

��� o� Router

��� o� Domain name

��� o� DNS entries

then you will need to edit x:\mptn\etc\dhcpcd.cfg and add these lines:

option 3                                # Router option 6                                # Domain Name Server option 15                               # Domain Name

(grabbed from here or from x:\mptn\samples\etc\dchpcd.cfg, near the bottom of the file)

then either use DHCPMON's "Actions->Release Lease" followed by "Actions->Request Lease", or reboot. Running SETUP.cmd will not reset DHCP and the new options will not be requested from the DHCP server.

Check \IBMLAN\IBMLAN.INI. Look for the line:

[networks] net1 = netbeui$,0,LM10,34,70,14

The first number after "netbeui$" is the Logical Adapter (LA) number, and must match what was installed via MPTS. I usually set LA0 to "OS/2 NetBIOS", and the corresponding first line in IBMLAN.INI would be as above.

If I you are installing "OS/2 NetBIOS over TCP/IP" (aka TCPBEUI), [/OS2/TCPBEUI/TCPBEUI.html go here] for information specific to TCPBEUI.

Depending upon how many tries you took to set up LA 0/1, the lines may or may not have the "net1" set right, and you'll have to edit them manually; MPTS will often screw it up. Also, make sure that for the fourth through sixth parameters there are three numbers (such as 34,70,14). Some versions of Peer apparently put garbage there instead.

Troubleshooting note: if you later change the LAx number for a protocol, MPTS will (still) often not update the "netx" numbers in PROTOCOL.ini, and at reboot you will receive a "SYS1719" on the \IBMLAN\NETPROG\NETWKSTA.200 line in CONFIG.SYS. Manually edit \IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.ini and change both the "netx" and second parameter(s) to fix this.

ArtChron removal


Disable the Elephant!

The Warp Registration Reminder (the "dancing elephant", ARTCHRON.exe) will pop up periodically to remind you to register, and to survey you annually.

Leaving the registration program to run on its arbitrary schedule can occasionally lead to a SYS0147: "Not enough resources", generally at startup.

In addition, IBM no longer appears to accept registrations generated by ARTCHRON.exe.

Detailed instructions on disabling or removing the Elephant are here.

Zip/Unzip utilities
Install some utilities. I put all file compression/decompression utilities in x:\ZIP.

InfoZip utils unzs550x2.exe (from hobbes) and zip23x2.zip (from Info-Zip.org)

Also, UNZIP32.DLL (from hobbes): Put it in a dir on the LIBPATH (I use x:\OS2\DLL).

Some programs use it (including ZTBold as of v1.93.x), and it's a good idea to grab the latest copy of the DLL directly (I think).

PKZIP for OS/2 v2.50 pkos2250.exe (from PKWare)

Not really needed, as most of the functionality is contained in the GPL Zip/Unzip utils.

LHAlh2_222.zip (from hobbes)

Rename LH32.exe to LH2.exe. ARJ arj2_308.exe (from hobbes) RAR rar250p.exe (from hobbes) TAR/GZIP gtar258.zip (from hobbes)

Unzip, then further unzip gz124-32.zip and extract gzip.exe, gzip.doc, gzip.info into \ZIP.

Move \TAR\tar.exe & \TAR\tar.inf to \ZIP. Bzip2 bzip2-nnn-x86-os2.exe (from the Official bzip Home Page)

download then rename to "bzip2.exe". CHKDSK Log file formatter chklogpk.exe (from IBM).

This handy utility will read a file left behind by every CHKDSK run (x:\chkdsk.log). Download, then run it to self-extract into a dir, and either make that dir on the path, or use a "New Program" template to create a desktop object for it. InterFTP v1.14 iftp114.zip or iftp114.zip This has become a fairly "broken" ftp client, and the author no longer answers email, so I'll have to replace this with a better client soon.

Next, you have three choices.


 * 1) 1) You can install NS w/RSU updates and try to use it to install FP15, using the [#NS_hack1 hack below],


 * 1) 2) You can use LOADDSKF.exe (from IBM) and manually create the FP diskettes, or


 * 1) 3) You can do the sane thing and use the [#Note3 Fastkick/DSKXTRCT method].

Naturally, I recommend the latter: no diskettes!� Besides, RSU only works for the FixPak, not for any of the optional component updates (MPTS, TCP/IP stack & apps, Peer Networking/NetBIOS, Device Driver updates Pak, etc.).

FixPak 15
FP15 (from Al's server) (from IBM ftp) via [#Note3 Faskkick/DSKXTRCT] & run FIX.cmd, (or apply FP15 via NS & web/rsu)

��� BEFORE running FIX.cmd, add�SET SHELLHANDLESINC=25 to the CONFIG.SYS and reboot!��This increases the default number of file handles each PM process can allocate (default is probably 20).� It's undocumented, and can fix some FixTool (SERVICE.exe, etc.) problems, especially for FP13 & FP14. May not be needed for FP15.

���During the Service process, if you get a msg about not being able to copy a file, you didn't have all the .dsk images available for DSKXTRCT to extract.� Go back and check that all the .dsks are there.

��� Always agree to let CSF replace MMPARTS.dll.

There is no need to apply any intermediate FixPaks, FP15 can be applied directly to a GA installation.

Update Kernel files
Kernel files Update (from Al's server) (from IBM ftp). This is a kernel files update to FP15.� As I type this, the newest "released for GA" is W41026.zip (26-Oct-01 build), but at least OS2KRNL is superceded by the one in the [#InstallDisk1 EXPARTW4 package]. � There are often newer kernels at Testcase, but they are for specific customers with specific problems to be solved, and these kernels are not thoroughly tested across all hardware/software combinations; use at your own risk.

To install (from the README): In the directory from which you boot (C:\ or d:\ or whatever), type these commands. Note that os2krnl should have come with this file. 1. attrib -r -s -h os2krnl 2. attrib -r -s -h os2ldr 3. copy os2krnl os2krnl.sav 4. copy os2ldr os2ldr.sav 5. copy \os2\system\trace\*.tdf \save (or wherever) 6. unzip -o xxx.zip If you want, you can turn the os2krnl and os2ldr attributes back on, but it's not necessary to do so.

Device Driver FixPak 02
Device Driver FixPack 02 (DDPak) (from IBM ftp) via [#Note3 Faskkick/DSKXTRCT] & run FIX.cmd. In general do not let it replace files that are already newer (ie IBM1S506.add etc.), but there are sometimes files that obviously have a newer internal revision level.

The DDPak/CSF will display this internal revision and you have to decide on a case-by-case basis whether it's appropriate to let it replace the file.

The FixPak had updated some of them, others were updated by the EXPARTW4 and IBMDASD packages.

One hiccup: the MOUSE.sys that comes with the DDPak2 adds support for wheel/stick mice, but if you are using an older Belkin OmniView KVM (such as a F1D074), you will find that after a normal boot that the keyboard will work only until you attempt to move the mouse, then both will lock, requiring a reset to reboot. �One workaround: boot OS/2 "in the background", with the KVM set to display a different computer.� Another workaround is to switch to a different KVM port right before the desktop loads, then wait about a minute until the desktop is completely initialized, then switch back.� The mouse and keyboard will then work OK until the next time you boot.� I save the old (FP15) MOUSE.SYS and restore it after applying DDPak02 and rebooting.

Update: XMOUSE.sys (from Martin Lafaix) overcomes this problem with wheelmouse support and older KVMs!

COM.sys for PCI serial ports
COM.sys update v1.2, bldlevel 10.078 (from Al's server) (from IBM).

Note: Do NOT use this driver on a PCMCIA-equipped system, it will likely trap at driver load. Use the DDPak02 version instead. ���Run COM16.exe in a temp dir to unarchive files,

���Copy COM.sys to x:\OS2\BOOT, replacing existing.

���Copy PCIDEV.tbl to x:\OS2\BOOT.

���Copy MODE.COM to x:\OS2, replacing existing.

[if using a PCI combo card, update PRINT01.sys also, available in a separate package.]

This version of COM.sys accepts two new parameters: /V (for verbose driver load reporting) and /W (to pause the screen until you press ).

Netscape Installation
Netscape v4.61� (strong encryption)�(from IBM (old)) (from IBM (newer)).� For a summary of recent NS versions released for OS/2, go [NSVer.html here]. Unzip it into a temp directory, then run INSTALL.exe Note: XR_0461.exe will not install until FP5+ is installed.� You can get around this by editing the�NS46COMM.PKG file. Delete the following three lines: ������FILE

������EXITWHEN �����= 'INSTALL&& ("%NSWS%" == "FALSE")',

������EXIT���������= NETSCAPEFIXPAK

����Reboot!��Do NOT apply NSPIP30 until you've rebooted.��If you immediately apply NSPIP30, the CONFIG.sys may not get a end-of-file character, and the WPS will not load. Plugin Pak v3.0 NSPIP30.exe (from IBM).� It won't install until FP5+ is installed.� Reboot after NS install and before PluginPak install, and after PluginPak install. Netscape spell checker dictionary us.dic (from IBM) ��� Put it in x:\NETSCAPE\PROGRAM\SPELLCHK RSU Updates� rsuinstn.exe (from IBM)

��� Copy RSUINST.exe & UNZIP.exe to x:\TCPIP\BIN

��� Copy RXFTP.dll to x:\TCPIP\DLL

��� (This next step is only necessary for WebEx and NS 2.x, and possibly NS 4.04; not necessary with NS/2 v4.61) Enable NS/2 to do RSU (Duane Chamblee's instructions)

EMX Runtime
EMX v0.9d+ (Fix 4)� emxrt_09d_04.zip (from hobbes) Use UNZIP.exe and extract it from the root, and the correct x:\EMX dir structure will be created. Note: if you later upgrade to a newer version of EMX, and EMX.DLL has been loaded because an application requested it, you will have to boot to a command prompt (at the OS/2 boot blob, , then  at the menu) or boot from floppies, and then unzip, because a loaded DLL cannot be replaced.

CONFIG.sys: initial mods
Create \BELFRY for .bat/.cmd files Create \TEMP Initial CONFIG.SYS modifications:

��� Remove "PROGRAMS", "CONNECTIONS", from SET AUTOSTART=. ..

��� Note: if you remove "FOLDERS", the system will not load the desktop, and at boot will "hang" with a blank blue screen and a moveable mouse pointer.� If you get this, put "FOLDERS" back in the AUTOSTART line. ��� Add \ZIP, \BELFRY, and \EMX\BIN to PATH= ��� Add \EMX\DLL to LIBPATH= ��� Add BASEDEV=CHKDSK.SYS ��� Change TZ=EST5EDT to SET TZ=PST8PDT (for us Left Coasters) ��� Add SET TMP=\TEMP (for ZTBold and other apps) ��� Add SET TEMP=\TEMP (for DOS apps compatibility) ��� Change SWAPPATH= to root, and increase minsize: ����� SWAPPATH=C:\ 2048 10000 ��� (after reboot, manually delete the old \OS2\SYSTEM\SWAPPER.DAT ) ��� Add /IRQ to PRINT01.SYS ��� Add RESERVEDRIVELETTER=R, bumps the removeable media drive(s) (such as CDROM) to S: and greater. ��� Add SET KILLFEATUREENABLED=ON * ��� Add SET USE_HOSTS_FIRST=1 (if you have an internal network, more than only one computer) ��� This line tells OS/2 TCP/IP to check the contents of the x:\MPTN\ETC\hosts file first, before going off to the "regular" DNS. ��� Add VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT=3072 ������ If you're using a newer kernel (FP13+) this moves the upper limit of RAM that a process can use, from 512MB to 3GB.� Note that this only works for OS/2 apps that have been written to specifically use the additional RAM available -- such as PMView 2.30+. Create X.bat and X.cmd in \Belfry, each of which contains just these two lines:

exit exit_vdm


 * After adding this line, you can access this feature by holding down the CTRL key and clicking the LMB on the Window List icon of the Warp Center.

Feature Installer
Feature installer 1.2.5 FIRUNPKG.zip (from IBM) (required to install Java updates)

Unzip into a temp dir, using UNZIP.exe or x:\IBMCOM\PKUNZIP2.exe or the OS/2 version of "PKZIP.exe /extract", then run FISETUP.exe.

Reboot!

Delete unzipped files when done. Verify installation in NS: Help->About Plug-ins should show "Feature Install Plugin".

Java 1.1.8 base + refreshes
Java 1.1.8 (Base & Swing): � This is a two-step process: base 1.1.8 install, then the latest 1.1.8 refresh. � Java 1.1.8 Base javainuf.exe -di -ov (Runtime only w/Unicode Font, 20mb) (from IBM) ([#Note2 note 2]) � Java 1.1.8 Swing Extensions javainsr.exe -di -ov (Swing Runtime, RMI-IIOP runtime) (from IBM) ��� To extract the install package, run whichever 1.1.8 base install package you choose, in any temp directory. ��� Use the "-di -ov" parameters.� Be CERTAIN to use those command-line parameters! ��� (If you forget, run RESETDIR.cmd to clean up the mess, then start again.) ��� Make sure that NS Navigator is closed. ��� Run INSTALL.exe in the temp directory, to begin the Java base installation. ��� NS will load x:\index.htm.� (If you didn't have NS completely shut ��� down before running INSTALL.exe, NS will complain that it can't find "x:\index.html") ��� Choose a language. ��� If the second page hangs at "Resolving the Feature Install Variable", reboot and try again. ��� If you get "Cannot find the RESPONSE file . . . ", you didn't have NS closed before you started. ��� Choose "Guided Path".� The correct options should already be checked, ��� with the possible exception of the install drive (if you intend to install Java 1.1.8 on a drive ��� other than the boot drive). ��� Reboot after the installation is complete. ��� Run DELINST.cmd in the temp directory for cleanup of unzipped files. ��� Repeat above steps for the Swing package; installation is identical.

Install the Java Refresh Java 1.1.8 Updates for Sep-01: runtime.exe -o (from IBM) Also, check out: os2jre.exe -o (from IBM) (seems to be a Java runtime package to be packaged with Java apps?) ��� Run each refresh from the root of the drive where you installed the Java 1.1.8 base. ��� Be certain to use the "-o" parameter! ��� Be sure to have all Java apps shut down as well as the Java console, prior to ��� running the refresh extract.

JavaOS2 removal
Remove JavaOS2: Once you have installed the new Java 1.1.8, you can get rid of JavaOS2, the old GA version of Java: ���Click on the Drives object, then click on the Drive C: object to get the Drive C: tree. ���Expand the OS2 object, ���Expand the Install object, ���Expand Installed Features, ���Open Install Object - Inventory, ���Highlight the Java object and click on Uninstall (don't uninstall Java11, as that is your new Java, uninstall only "Java".), ���Reboot. ���Check CONFIG.sys for the presence of any reference to x:\JAVAOS2, and remove if necessary.

MPTS: replacement 8423
MPTS & TCP/IP updates How you proceed from here depends on whether you intend to stay with the 16-bit TCP/IP v4.0 that comes with W4, or move to the 32-bit TCP/IP v4.1 that was optional for an added fee (free for a week or so, if you were lucky) but is no longer available from IBM and has been supplanted by TCP/IP v4.3. To install v4.1, [/OS2/TCPIP41/TCPIP41.html go here] and follow the v4.1 installation steps, then return and [#Peer8414 skip to here].

MPTS 8423 (complete MPTS replacement for use with TCP/IP v4.0 [which is what ships with Warp4] or v3.0 [which ships with Warp3 Connect]) (from Al's server ) (from IBM ftp )� via [#Note3 DSKXTRCT] & run INSTALL.cmd [which calls MPTS.exe]). ��� [W3C Note: According to the INF file, this will update a W3C box to TCP/IP v4.0, but you must install UN_0959 (from IBM ftp) first, to bring W3C's TCP/IP apps up from v3.0 to v3.1?��Only really needed for updated SLIP & PPP modules.] ��� Brings the TCP/IP stack up to v4.02r. ��� This updates the stack, but not the applications (ftp.exe, ftpd.exe, telnet.exe, etc.)

If you get a msg, "SET CSFCDROMDIR=C:\IBMCOM\ [or similar]does not exist or is invalid" you:


 * Ran "FIX" instead of "INSTALL";
 * Didn't have the Fastkick stuff unzipped in the same directory that you DSKXTRCT'ed the DSK files to, or;
 * You have forgotten to DSKXTRCT or DIUNPACK the .dsk files.

You MUST run MPTS Configure at the end of its install.��Look over the configuration options, close the window, and let MPTS update the CONFIG.SYS.��This MPTS install has new TCP/IP transport drivers with different filenames, so unless the CONFIG.SYS is updated, the existing configuration will NOT be successfully migrated!

Reboot, then delete the the files and dirs created by DSKXTRCT.

MPTS: update 8425
MPTS 8425 (MPTS update for use with TCP/IP v4.0) (from Al's server ) (from IBM ftp ) via [#Note3 Faskkick/DIUNPACK] & run "FIX.cmd" (use DIUNPACK.exe instead of DSKXTRCT.exe) ��� Brings the TCP/IP stack up to v4.02y. ��� This updates the stack, but apparently not the apps. ��� If you didn't delete the extracted files from installing MPTS8423, their locations will show up on the "Serviceable Products" list, and you'll need to de-select them.

TCP/IP v4.0 apps update
TCP/IP v4.0 apps update UN_0980 (from IBM ftp) via [#Note3 Faskkick/DSKXTRCT] & run "FIX.cmd".� Updates TCP/IP applications, such as ftp.exe, ftpd.exe, syslogd.exe, tcpcoex.exe, telnet.exe, etc.� Does not change the stack level. ��� In x:\MPTN\BIN\SETUP.cmd, remove the "> nul" from the ends of the route.exe commands. ��� Create (or edit, if it exists) x:\TCPIP\BIN\TCPEXIT.cmd: ������� INETCFG -S SYNATTACK 1 ������� INETCFG -S keepalive 60 ������� INETCFG -S multidefrt 0

Reboot, then delete the the files and dirs created by DSKXTRCT.

Peer Networking: 8414 update
PEER 8412 & 8413 There are [Connections1.html serious problems with these FPs.] I do not recommend installing them, though in at least one instance, I have been able to apply 8410 first, then 8413, and experienced no loss of the Connections GUI elements.

PEER8414 via [#Note3 Faskkick/DSKXTRCT] (from Al's server) (from IBM ftp) ��� Don't try to install the 8414 update if you haven't installed Peer Networking, either at OS installation or later, the update won't install! ��� Note: if you had an existing non-DHCP install working prior to installing 8414, and you get "no route to host" after 8414, check the TCP/IP configuration (run tcpcfg.exe) and look at Routing.��The default route may have been subtly changed: last mask number especially.� (On one of Doug's boxes, after 8412, 255.255.255.224 went to 255.255.255.0.

Postfix 8414 fix08414 (from Paul Ratcliffe) ��� Unzip in a temp dir, ��� Run INSTALL.cmd

From Paul's README.txt: ��� This will fix the resource stringtable errors in the IBM fixpack IP08414 ��� which show up on the "Shared Resources and Network Connections" object on ��� the "Statistics" and "Open sessions" dialogs. ��� It should be applied immediately after installing the fixpack. ��� You will need to restart the Workplace Shell before changes become active.

CONFIG.sys: final mods
Final CONFIG.SYS modifications : ��� For autocheck of HDDs >8gb, and after FP15 is installed, add: ������� BASEDEV=CHKDSK.SYS ��� If you like verbose driver loads, add /V to: ������� BASEDEV=IBM1S506.ADD /v (if an IDE system) ������� BASEDEV=OS2DASD.DMD /v ������� DEVICE=x:\OS2\BOOT\COM.SYS /v (Serial port driver) ������� DEVICE=x:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\SOCKETS.SYS /v ������� DEVICE=x:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\AFOS2.SYS /v ������� DEVICE=x:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\AFINET.SYS /v ������� DEVICE=x:\IBMCOM\MACS\EPRO.OS2 /v (old intel MAC driver for Pro Lan 8/16) ������� DEVICE=x:\IBMCOM\MACS\EXP16.OS2 /v (newer Intel MAC driver for EtherExpress) ������� DEVICE=x:\IBMCOM\MACS\E100B.OS2 /v (Intel Pro100 MAC driver) ��� Remove� ">NUL" from CALL=x:\OS2\CMD.EXE /Q /C x:\MPTN\BIN\MPTSTART.CMD >NUL ��� Change the "/Q" to "/V" on: ������� DEVICE=x:\OS2\BOOT\OS2CDROM.DMD /Q (if the system has a CDROM) ������� IFS=x:\OS2\BOOT\CDFS.IFS /Q (if the system has a CDROM) ��������� Also, add "/W" if you want to enable Joliet file system support. ������� Remove SET TMP=x:\TCPIP\TMP (usually near the end of the file)

CONFIG.X: update the bootup  CONFIG.sys
Modify CONFIG.X ��� x:\OS2\BOOT\CONFIG.X is the CONFIG.sys that is used when you use  at bootup to choose "Go to Command Prompt" ().� If you don't make a few mods to this file, every time you start OS/2 this way you'll get another 2mb x:\OS2\SYSTEM\SWAPPER.dat, so at least change the SET SWAPPATH statement.� You may want to add a few of the other mods, as you have to the main CONFIG.sys.

Video Drivers
Video driver for whatever video card you're running.� If you install this before now, you'll be sorry. ��� If you're installing the Matrox Mill/G200/G400 v2.36 driver (or similar), and you run their INSTALL.cmd, and after changing the source directory you get a SYS3175 (or similar) in DSPINSTL.exe, you will have to either: a) replace DSPINSTL.exe, in \OS2\INSTALL with the newer one (from IBM), or b) replace ��� DSPINSTL.exe (174,616, 13-Apr-00), in \OS2\INSTALL (rename it), with ��� DSPINSTL.exe (117,768 29-Aug-96), that is in \OS2\INSTALL\VGA. Then rerun the Matrox INSTALL.cmd.

Optional stuff
Optionally:

MS TT core web fonts
MS Core Web Fonts Add these TT fonts: mswbfnts.zip (from hobbes). The addition of these fonts makes CSS-enabled pages look a LOT better in NS 4.61. ��� Unzip it in a temp dir, ��� Open "OS/2 System" folder, ��� Open "System Setup" folder, ��� Open "Font Palette" object, ��� Select "Edit fonts", ��� Selct the "Add" button, ��� In the resulting "Add Font" dialogue, type the path to the temp dir, ��� Select any file in the left "Font files" pane, ��� Press  to select all the font files, ��� Select the "Add" button, ��� On the resulting six to eight error dialogues ("This font file already exists" or similar), select "Cancel", ��� Close the "Edit font" dialogue and all other folders.

ASPIROUT.SYS
ASPIROUT.SYS Paul Ratcliffe's rewrite of Daniel Dorau's original ASPIROUT.SYS is a required Ring 0 driver for many non-IBM and ported SCSI-using applications (such as SANE and CDRecord). Get aspirb5.zip (from Al's server) (from Paul's server). Unzip it, and put ASPIROUT.SYS in x:\OS2\BOOT, then add a line in CONFIG.sys : ���� DEVICE=X:\OS2\BOOT\ASPIROUT.SYS /V

e.exe - Default Editor
e.exe - Default editor Paul Ratcliffe's modification of the FP15-version of e.exe eliminates it appending an EOF byte (26d or ) to the end of text files.� This mod fixes [e.exe-box.html this problem with broken web browsers]. �A replacement e.exe is [e.exe-box.html#replace here].

GhostScript/GSView
GhostScript/GSView The combination of these two fine products gives OS/2 users better PostScript and .PDF readability than Adobe Acrobat v4 for Win! Get GhostScript (from UWisc.). Don't unzip it! Get GSView (from UWisc.) and extract into a temp dir. Run GSView's OS2SETUP.exe .� When it asks what version of GhostScript you're installing, increment it to 8.00 .� It will inquire where to put itself; the defaults are fine.� It will also ask where the GhostScript archive file is, and after you point to it, the GSView installer will do the extract for you.� Very nice.

Note1: The first time that you run GSView, it will ask you to confirm some things, one of which is the x:\psfonts dir. If you do not keep your \psfonts dir on C: (the default), you'll need to change this setting.

Note2: For versions of GSView >=8.00: In order to print: open GSView, and in the Options menu, switch off the "SAFER" option.� The default is to deny file system write access.� If you don't do this, when you try to print, you'll see something like:

Unrecoverable error: invalidfileaccess in file Operand stack: D:\downloads\big_file.pdf r gsapi_execute_cont returns -9 gsapi_exit returns 0

Note3: For even later versions of GSView, "Options|Advanced Configure|Include Path" should be something like: D:\GHOSTSCRIPT\gs9.00\resource\init;D:\GHOSTSCRIPT\gs9.00\lib;D:\GHOSTSCRIPT\gs9.00\Resource\font;D:\GHOSTSCRIPT\fonts;e:\psfonts

Tell Netscape that GS is your helper application for PDF files. ���Edit->Preferences, ���In the left pane, choose "Navigator->Applications", ������Select the "New Type" button, ������Description of type: PDF files ������Extension: PDF ������MIME type: application/pdf ������Application to use: (use "Browse" to choose GVPM.exe)

FFST/2 Updates
FFST/2 Updates If FFST was installed, it should be updated. Run SYSLEVEL.exe and read the CSD level for FFST. If it is WR0048x, proceed. (I have had to apply the initial install fix first (1996), then apply the later WR_FF02 (1998) fix. The later fix would not install without the first refresh accomplished. ���(FFSTC22.zip) (from IBM ftp) ���Unzip in a temp dir, run ������FFSTINST.exe /INSTALL ���Run SYSLEVEL.exe; the CSD level for FFST will be WR00520.

=Generic W4 Notes=

DHCP Tips
Generic W4 Notes  DHCP Tips  No. 1 When running DHCP, the DHCP startup sequence is: MPTSTART.cmd is run from CONFIG.sys, which runs SETUP.cmd, which runs something like "dhcpstrt -i lan0".� DHCPSTRT.exe has a default timeout of 60 seconds.� The problem arises that if DHCPSTRT.exe can't get the information it wants from a DHCP server within that 60 seconds, bootup is halted and the user is prompted to "Press Enter to continue" and no other CONFIG.sys processing occurs.

Ken Blackburn has this advice: ��� Remove the line ����� CALL=x:\OS2\CMD.EXE /Q /C x:\MPTN\BIN\MPTSTART.CMD ��� from CONFIG.sys, and run MPTSTART.cmd from the STARTUP.cmd file.� This allows the machine to ��� finish booting before initializing the TCP/IP module.

No. 2 ��� Ken Blackburn has this advice: ��� When DHCP takes a long time to get parameters: ��� Before running SETUP.cmd which contains the call to DHCPSTRT.exe, remove the ��� x:\MPTN\ETC\RESOLV2 file. ��� Doing this reduced the time to acquire a lease from minutes back to seconds.

Peer Install & Long lines in CONFIG.sys
Error: F&PS (Peer): SYS3175 in PEERINST.PGM at 00065253  Over the years, IBM and folks in the NGs have made us aware that File & Print Services installation (Peer) from the CD in Warp4 does not work correctly if you have a line in the CONFIG.SYS which is longer than 255 characters.� What is not as well known or discussed is that *any* line longer than 255 characters will trigger the subject error.

Most folks have posted that it is the PATH� or LIBPATH lines that cause the error, but in my case, a reinstall of Peer with the PATH/LIBPATH lines drastically shortened did not help.� The clue, as posted Aug-98 by Ken Taylor, is in x:\IBMINST\LOGS\LOCINSTU\LOCAL.L2, which read in part:

CAS0029: CASINSTL Warning!� One or more lines in E:\CONFIG.SYS exceed 255 characters.

I had several copies of PATH/LIBPATH/DPATH/HELP lines, left there by Tyra/2, a CONFIG.SYS maintenance utility.� After removing those lines, then cutting the PATH/LIBPATH/DPATH/HELP lines in three pieces (and putting the "discarded" parts in shortened REM lines, to be glued back on later), I was able to continue Peer installation without the PEERINST.PGM error.

Note that running :\CID\IMG\IBMPEER\PEERRMT.EXE, an installation approach which has been commonly advised in the NGs, did not recreate the Connections|Network|NetworkServices|SharedResources&NetworkConnections object.

Running :\IBMINST\NPCONFIG.EXE would not complete installation, reporting that it couldn't generate a file whose target location was on the CD drive!

Finally, as Mr. Knott has advised, running :\INSTALL.CMD will allow the complete Peer/MPTS/TCP/IP installation to complete, with all objects in place on the desktop etc.� To which the various fixpacks can then be applied:

Note 3: The Fastkick/CSF &DSKXTRCT method. �� The Fastkick package comes with the CSF files (Customer Service Facility: SERVICE.exe, etc.).� Unfortunately, it contains an older version of CSF, not the latest, so if you get it from hobbes, you'll have to update it manually with CSF144 (from IBM).� It also doesn't contain DSKXTRCT.exe (from hobbes), only DIUNPACK.exe (which doesn't work with all packages).� So, if you get Fastkick from hobbes, also get DSKXTRCT.exe & CSF144, and unzip everything together in one dir. ��� Download Fastkick144� ������ fastkick144.zip (with DSKXTRCT.exe)
