subject: DEBUGGING & 2.99 BETA

VJ>Ive learned by another message in this area that there are 2 kernels
VJ>supplied with 2.99: small and full. The full kernel (larger but not slower)
VJ>will contain the APIs to use debuggers like IPMD.  

Phew!, I was worried about being left out of the 2.99 parade! Sounds great but
the debug problem has kept me away. I'll be getting another 200MB HDD soon so I
think I'll make a partition  for it on that drive and install Boot Manager. BTW
can boot manager exist with Dual Boot already on drive C:? I don't want to have
to make two partitions out of that drive if I use Boot Mangler, one for dos, on

for original OS/2..., Bootmanager selecting between Dual Boot on drive C and th

extra 2.99 partition on drive D:.

VJ>My previous message refered to the debug kernel which is something
VJ>completely different. 


So the Beta has 3 kernals? Lite, Full, Debug ? I know about the debug kernel on
the Tool Kit disk and Devcon disks. I need two machines to use that..

Should I wait for the next beta / GA of this? I see lots of problems reported
but part of me says that the satisfied customers always make less noise than th

Dissatisfied... Or should I go for it now? I have no tricky hardware. Lot's of
simple ISA, IDE, Diamond SpeedStar Plus (1991)., No sound, no CD-ROM
