I want to install os/2 from floppy and harddrive, therefore I need disk1.dsk and NOT disk1_cd.dsk. Can someone e-mail this image to me?

I only have disk0.dsk disk1_cd.dsk and disk2.dsk

Ron, we need some more information to help you. What version of OS2 are you using?

From the count of diskette images you've already got it looks like Warp 3 something. However, there are at least 4 versions of Warp 3 out there and I didn't count server images and languages.

btw, did you search on the Warp CD-ROM for disk1.dsk? - It should be there together with disk1_cd.dsk

I have os2 warp 4... but there was no disk1.dsk on the CD to my surprise... (i borrowed it, but had to return it so i copy'd the whole CD
)
I've searched the web and it says there must be 4 files there (disk0/1/2.dsk and disk1_cd.dsk)
, and I have to make disk1.dsk for an instal from HD. (but this you already know i guess. :)

I've tried to make 3 disks (with the disk1_cd.dsk) and tweak it to install from HD but it does not work. (been busy a whole day ... but i'm not giving up)

I think all the files for disk1.dsk are in directory "\OS2IMAGE\DISK_1" on the installation CD.
Copy all those files to an empty floppy.
Label it "disk1".

If you don't already know...:
Don't forget to add
COPYFROMFLOPPY=1
as the first line in config.sys on this disk1
floppy.

Also you have to edit the line
"set os2_shell=sysinst2.exe"
and append the path to your OS2IMAGE dir.
In my case after editing:
set os2_shell=sysinst2.exe C:\WARP4\OS2IMAGE

You must replace "C:\WARP4" in the path above
to the drive and directory where you have
the copy of the installation CD.

It worked for me.
