Here's a note in an internal bulleting board on the fixes necessary
to get FL/G to install under OS/2 2.0. Note that FL/G *runs* fine
without modification. It just won't *install*!
Installing on Version 2.0 of OS/2
---------------------------------
To fix your FL/G disks to install under OS/2 V2 you must patch
the Install.exe file on the INSTALL disk.
********MAKE A BACKUP COPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
********DO THIS Patch on the BACKUP!!!!!
Use DISKCOPY A: A:
Ignore the error msg (if any) about bad track 1 sector 79.
On the backup disk:
-A:\-patch install.exe
Patching install.exe
End of file is at 29DE0
Enter the hexadecimal offset of patch: 409
00000409 C9 DB 2C 02 01 06 00 04 20 00 7D 10 00 03 00 00 ..,..... .}.
***** Change the first C9 to B5 as follows:
00000409 B5 DB 2C 02 01 06 00 04 20 00 7D 10 00 03 00 00 ..,..... .}.
Do you want to continue patching install.exe? (Y/N) Y
End of file is at 29DE0
Enter the hexadecimal offset of patch: E0D
00000E0D 14 73 18 1E 68 B6 01 1E 68 EC 01 9A 74 02 59 08 .s..h...h...
******Change the 14 to 00 as follows:
00000E0D 00 73 18 1E 68 B6 01 1E 68 EC 01 9A 74 02 59 08 .s..h...h...
Do you want to continue patching install.exe? (Y/N) N
Patches entered for install.exe
00000409 B5 DB 2C 02 01 06 00 04 20 00 7D 10 00 03 00 00 ..,..... .}.
00000E0D 00 73 18 1E 68 B6 01 1E 68 EC 01 9A 74 02 59 08 .s..h...h...
Do you want these patches applied to install.exe? (Y/N)Y
Patches applied to install.exe
You can now use the backup disk to install FL/G on OS/2 V2.
Hope this is of help.
