    I've got original Retail normal disks of IBM OS/2 2.0 (5.25") (Not Upgrade version on WinWorld)

    I figured out that the difference between Normal and Upgrade of OS/2 2.0 Retail is on SYSINST2.EXE on Disk 1.
    They're each same disks except Disk 1.

    dude this os takes so long to install! that made me keep my pc and virtualbox open the entire night! @ibmpc5150 are the retail normal disks faster?
  • os2fan2os2fan2
    Look on the internet, for a program called os2hdd. You can copy all of the disks to a drive, and then install from that drive. I normally install a pcdos session in the first partition, and have copies of the stuff prepared by os2hdd there too,

    edit the config.sys to set os2_shell=sysinst2.exe c:\os2v200 (the directory that you put all of the files os2hdd extracts.) It then installs without needing other cdroms.

    Unfortunately I don't have original retail disks.
  • wintdddwintddd
    @ibmpc5150 THEN WHY DID YOU SAY THAT IN THE COMMENTS?!
  • os2fan2os2fan2
    You don't need the retail disks. The disks on this site will do the trick. You put the images in a directory, and do `for %%f in (*.img) os2hdd %%f c:\os2v200`. You take the images 0 and 1, and edit config.sys.

    For OS/2 without cdrom install, i use a DOS partition to transfer stuff in and out.

    I bought IBM OS/2 2.0 Retail (Full) on eBay.
    But I sold it after I dumped it.
    (Only difference between Retail Full and Retail Upgrade is on Disk 1)

    This is file list of Disk 1 for Retail Full.
     Volume in drive A is DISK 1

    A quick test indicates that OS/2 2.0 and 2.1 also work in Virtual PC. For running 32-bit versions of OS/2, Virtual PC is a good choice, especially because guest additions improving the integration of OS/2 VMs with the host operating system are available.
