OSDIWUT - CREATING UTILITY DISKETTES FOR OS/2 WARP
12/29/94
================================================================
CREATING UTILITY DISKETTES FOR OS/2 WARP
================================================================
Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
----------------------------------------------------------------
If your computer came with OS/2 Warp already installed, there is
a program for creating Utility diskettes on the hard disk. You
should create a set of Utility diskettes in case there is ever
a problem starting the computer from hard disk.
The Utility Diskettes can also start the procedure for backing up
the operating system to diskettes. Backup diskettes let you
restore OS/2 to the hard disk in the event of a computer problem.
To create Utility diskettes, you need three blank, high-density
(2MB) diskettes for a 1.44MB drive, or one extended-density (4MB)
diskette for a 2.88MB drive.
1. Open OS/2 System.
2. Open System Setup.
3. Open Create Utility Diskettes. The Create Utility Diskettes
window appears.
For information about Create Utility Diskettes, press F1. Or,
place the mouse pointer on the Help push button and click
once. To close the Help window, press Esc.
4. Select the drive where the Utility Diskettes will be created.
If you select drive A, insert a blank diskette into drive A.
5. Type C. Or, place the mouse pointer on the Create push
button and click once. Follow the instructions on the screen
to prepare Utility Diskettes.
Label and number each diskette as they are created.
Store the diskettes in a safe place.
