No, it is not possible to install Warp 3 in dual boot on a HPFS partition,
because plain DOS can not read HPFS partitions. I wouldn't use dual boot
anyway, because that's asking for trouble. :) I recommend to install any OS/2
version in its own HPFS boot partition with only the operating system in the
boot partition, no applications and no user data on the boot partition but
both on other partition(s), preferable HPFS, FAT partition only for exchange
with a plain DOS version if needed.

LA> With Win apps needed?

I recommend to install them on the user partition too (also preferable HPFS).
