I use to see stuff like this back in the days of DOS. If the installation
is on a partition larger then 2gb it failed. I forgot the cause of it, but
it looks like they have managed to extend the problem from DOS to all its
Pretty Brothers. --And Bill Gates said DOS is dead.

You have to install the Thinkpad Configuration program and set it there.
(this is another cobbed up installation routine).
I doubt either of these will ever be fixed because the PC Company will end
all OS2 support for the TP 600 at the end of the year. --At least that
was what I was told two months ago.
I can't find the e-mail addresses that I had for OS2 support, but you can
report a problem through the "contact us " screens on the Thinkpad support
web site. Sometimes they get back right away. Sometimes it takes awhile.
