Why this talk about Virtual OS/2?

When you install OS/2 you get a very nice BootManager that lets you
decide which operating system to use, OS/2, Windows or old PCDOS and
even Linux.

Installing Windows on that machine disables the BM but you only have to
restart the OS/2 FDISK to get it back. Probably the same procedure is
valid for other additional operating systems.
