Since the Warp 3 upgrade edition wouldn't install without it, I can
positively state that the location was indeed \OS2\INSTALL.  Every time I
installed it, I needed to copy SYSLEVEL.OS2 from disk 1 from OS/2 2.1 (a 5
1/4" floppy!) to that directory first (until I realized that the one from
Warp 3 would work just as well).

The format of the file appears to be basically the same.  I'll let you
judge for yourself:

http://home.att.net/~thanny/syslevel.os2

That file was uploaded right off of disk 1 of my OS/2 2.1 installation
floppies.
