Sounds like the locked driver is still loaded. I wonder why it isn't
finishing? It should run part way through boot up, replaced the files on
the locked files lists, then reboot.

Check the top of the config.sys for the locked driver statement. If it
won't finish, I suppose you need to manually intervene. There is a
procedure to remove the references to existing fixpacks on you
harddrive:
October 18, 1996 - Warp FixPak TIPS
RECOVERING FIXPAK ARCHIVE AND BACKUP SPACE
Warning: Make sure you read and understand the following before
removing the Archive and Backup files and directories.
You can recover the space used for FixPak Archive and Backup files as
long as you understand that doing this prevents you from being able to
backout to the previous Backup or Archive level. If it becomes
necessary at a later time to backout a FixPak, the only way you can do
this is to reinstall Warp.
Do the following to delete the FixPak Backup and Archive files and
remove the files used by CSF to keep track of what service has been
applied to your system.
1. Delete every instance of the following files on your system
(search every drive and every directory they contain).
LOGF0000.* (can be OS2 or MPM)
LOGSTART.* (can be OS2 or MPM)
LOGARCH.* (can be OS2 or MPM)
CSF_*.*
FIXSTART
2. Delete the files in the FixPak Archive and Backup directories on
your harddisk. 3. Remove the FixPak Archive and Backup directories
with the RMDIR command.
Check out the readme.tip file and see if thee is anything else you may
be able to do.
