--------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION

During installation of OS/2 Warp 3.0 on certain ZEOS systems, the 
installation stops after the first start to the hard disk. A SYS3175 or
SYS3186 message for either PMREXX.DLL or MAKEINI.EXE might appear. 
Other modules also might appear.

If you partition your hard disk under Advanced Installation with
Prefetch or Multisector Transfer enabled, the partition and format will
be damaged, resulting in damage of any programs or data written to it.

RESOLUTION

Note: Systems with Pantera Number 453-0036-02 should not disable
      Prefetch when told to do so.

1. Disable Prefetch and Multisector Transfer in CMOS.

2. Repartition and reinstall.

3. If the problem persists, check the BIOS number (Pantera Number). If
   this number is 453-0036-02, contact ZEOS Technical Support at
   1-800-228-5390.
