Only 1GB?  You're new to computers, aren't you?

The alternative is to download the fixpack in the form of diskette images,
create the diskettes, boot from the first one on the OS/2 machine, and sit
there swapping disks for a while.

There is a way around that, but it'd require doing what you probably don't
know how to do, yet.
