most likely you'll need updated install
diskettes if you have above 8.4GB HD

and remember to install within the 1024 cyl.
of the partition.

OS/2 version 3 will not install if an Hard Disk larger than 512 Mb (a HD what uses LBA).
After the update, it will not hang (error message SYS....) But you have to install a small hard disk if you want to use OS/2 version 3
