      In a message on 06-13-18 Sean Dennis said to Holger Granholm:              Hi Sean,               HG> Why this talk about Virtual OS/2?              SD> Because OS/2 won't install on a 6TB SAS disk correctly.              Who needs a 6 TB disk?       Probably your BBS may use such capacity, but not normal humans.              SD> Also because OS/2 has a serious issue installing on modern hardware.              You don't have to tell me that. Only single core CPU's and small       partitions are accepted at install.              SD> So OS/2 suits itself to being run under a VM nicely if the VM can       SD> handle OS/2's usage of esoteric API calls when it boots up.              I have been told that the new versions such as Arca-OS and eComOS can be       installed on modern machines.                     73 de Sam, OH0NC              aka Holger                     .. If I learn from my mistakes, I get a FABULOUS education.       -- MR/2 2.30                     --- PCBoard (R) v15.22 (OS/2) 2        * Origin: Coming to you from the Sunny Aland Islands.
