Well, the answer is very straightforward:

1ø You have to apply Fixpack 6

2ø Afterwards, you have to enter manually in the config.sys:

Basedev=IBMATAPI.FLT

In the event you are working on a Warp with NO fixpackages above FP5 (such as
Czech), you'll have to grabb the newdasd.exe file from somewhere.
