Hi!

I'm trying to install OS/2 Warp 3.0 Redspine on a friends system. He's running 

a 486DX/33Mhz all-ISA board, 400mb Quantum HD, standard ISA/FDD controller, 
and just a VGA card installed.

OS/2 starts to boot okay on Disk 0, but after the "Loading; please wait" 
message appears, the screen goes blank, and the system stops. I have no idea 
whats going on, (Alt+F2 doesn't seem to work on the installation disks). I've 
tried everything I could think of (disabling cache, etc), but to no avail.

Any ideas/suggestions?
