In a message on 06-13-18 Sean Dennis said to Holger Granholm: Hi Sean, HG> Why this talk about Virtual OS/2? SD> Because OS/2 won't install on a 6TB SAS disk correctly. Who needs a 6 TB disk? Probably your BBS may use such capacity, but not normal humans. SD> Also because OS/2 has a serious issue installing on modern hardware. You don't have to tell me that. Only single core CPU's and small partitions are accepted at install. SD> So OS/2 suits itself to being run under a VM nicely if the VM can SD> handle OS/2's usage of esoteric API calls when it boots up. I have been told that the new versions such as Arca-OS and eComOS can be installed on modern machines. 73 de Sam, OH0NC aka Holger ..
