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

I have been told that the new versions such as Arca-OS and eComOS can be
installed on modern machines.
