Hi!

Trying to apply y2k fix to OS/2 v 3 (pure out of box) I dowloaded a few
XR_W042.* text files. This is from XR_W042.RM1:

   3.0.1 DEVICE DRIVERS REMOVED FROM FIXPAK

   Beginning with Warp 4 FixPak XR_M011 and Warp 3 FixPak XR_W041, most OS/2
   Device Drivers have been moved to a separate Device Driver FixPak. The
   first Device Driver, XR_D001, is now available where this FixPak is
   available.

   To avoid potential Device Driver problems with the installation of Warp 4
   FixPak XR_M011 and Warp 3 FixPak XR_W041, your system should be at FixPak
   level XR_M005 or higher for Warp 4 and XR_W032 or higher for Warp 3.

It seems like I have to first download some older fixpack, and then a newest
one. Can that be avoided or which one fixpack is 'enough' good for solving Y2K 
and can be applied to the 'out of box' Warp?
