OSINCDDK - HARD DISK TO HARD DISK INSTALLATION ON LAPTOPS 01/09/97 ======================================================================= Hard Disk to Hard Disk Installation on Laptops ======================================================================= Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures -------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION This document describes the steps necessary to install OS/2 Warp from the hard drive on laptop systems which cannot use the diskette drive and CD-ROM drive at the same time. RESOLUTION Hard Drive to Hard Drive Installation 1. Start your system with the CD-ROM drive attached and the OS/2 Warp CD-ROM in the drive. 2. Make a temporary directory called TEMP; type MD TEMP and press Enter. 3. Type XCOPY X:\os2image\*.* /S C:\TEMP and press Enter. where: X: is the CD-ROM drive, and C: is a drive containing enough disk space to place the images and OS/2. 4. Restart the system with the diskette drive attached. Create a DISKCOPY of the OS/2 Warp Diskette 1 by typing the following at the command prompt: DISKCOPY A: A: 5. With the DISKCOPY of Diskette 1 in the drive, type COPY A:\CONFIG.SYS A:\CONFIG.001, then press Enter. 6. Use a text editor to edit the CONFIG.SYS on the new Diskette 1 and make the following changes: buffers=32 iopl=yes memman=swap,delayswap protshell=sysinst1.exe set os2_shell=sysinst2.exe C:\temp diskcache=D2,LW protectonly=yes libpath=.;\;\os2\dll;\os2\install; ifs=hpfs.ifs /c:64 pauseonerror=no codepage=850 devinfo=kbd,us,keyboard.dcp devinfo=scr,ega,vtbl850.dcp device=\dos.sys device=\mouse.sys set path=\;\os2;\os2\system;\os2\install set dpath=\;\os2;\os2\system;\os2\install set keys=on basedev=ibmkbd.sys basedev=ibm1flpy.add basedev=ibm1s506.add /A:0 /!bm rem basedev=ibm2flpy.add rem basedev=ibm2adsk.add rem basedev=ibm2scsi.add rem basedev=ibmint13.i13 basedev=os2dasd.dmd device=\testcfg.sys basedev=xdfloppy.flt rem set os2_shell=cdinst.exe rem set saveconnect=1 rem set cdrominst=1 rem ifs=cdfs.ifs /q rem basedev=aha152x.add rem basedev=aha154x.add rem basedev=aha164x.add rem basedev=aha174x.add rem basedev=aic7870.add rem basedev=btscsi.add rem basedev=fd16-700.add rem basedev=fd8xx.add rem basedev=fd7000ex.add rem basedev=dpt20xx.add rem basedev=dac960.add rem basedev=flashpt.add rem basedev=ipsraid.add rem basedev=ql10os2.add rem basedev=ql40os2.add rem basedev=ql510.add rem basedev=chincds1.flt rem basedev=hitcds1.flt rem basedev=neccds1.flt rem basedev=sonycds1.flt rem basedev=toshcds1.flt rem basedev=ibmidecd.flt rem basedev=tmv1scsi.add rem basedev=sony535.add rem basedev=lms206.add rem 154569 basedev=lms205.add rem basedev=mitfx001.add rem basedev=sbcd2.add rem device=\os2cdrom.dmd rem set os2_shell=cdboot.exe rem set oemprogram=\ibminst\npconfig.exe rem set exitwhendone=1 Save and Exit the file. 7. You can begin the OS/2 installation with the following: - OS/2 Warp Installation Diskette - OS/2 Warp Diskette 1, modified as in step 6 - Diskette images in the \TEMP directory on the hard disk Insert the OS/2 Installation Diskette in drive A: and restart the system. When prompted for Diskette 1, use the modified copy. warp4 ______________________________________________________________________ IBM disclaims all warranties, whether express or implied, including without limitation, warranties of fitness and merchantability with respect to the information in this document.
