- See my other post on this (possible in comp.os.os2.apps). You
- download it from software.watson.ibm.com or from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.
- The files are spg301.dsk-spg314.dsk for 3.5" disks and
- spg501.dsk-spg516.dsk for 5.25" disks. Download them. On
- ftp-os2.nmsu.edu, they have been compressed. Use IBM's loaddskf.exe
- program (stored in loaddf.zip) to produce install disks from the images.

- They'll probably notify you soon, although they might not, given the
- number of bugs that have come about after the 32-bit GRE installation.
- (which is included in the SP). You can order it from them by calling
- 1-800-3-IBM-OS2 during business hours. Have your credit card handy,
- it will cost $25 to cover shipping and media.
