- Below is a list of files necessary to create a 3.5" Boot Disk for OS/2 GA
- with HPFS support. Sorry but HPFS.IFS makes it too large for 5.25" drives.
-
- Copy sysinstx.com from the Install Disk and run this to copy the hidden
- file OS2BOOT from your hard drive to a Formatted 1.4 meg floppy. Copy the
- other files from the appropriate disk to create the boot disk.
-
- OS2BOOT 1099 Created on boot disk by sysinstx.com
- OS2KRNL 716044 Copy OS2KRNLI from Install Disk and rename.
- OS2LDR 32256 Copy from Install Disk.
- OS2LDR MSG 8440 Copy from Install Disk.

- Adding HPFS.IFS allows you to view and manipulate High Performance File
- System drives.
-
- To use CHKDSK.COM against these drives format a second floppy and copy
- CHKDSK.COM and UHPFS.DLL to the disk. CHKDSK loads UHPFS.DLL when it gives
- the message "The HPFS file system program has been started". You could also
- add CD support to the boot disk by including CDFS.IFS to your boot disk and
- adding the appropriate IFS= statement to the config.sys. If you do this
- add UCDFS.DLL to your second "utility" disk for chkdsk, format, etc. to
- load.
