10/12/94
================================================================
RETRIEVING YOUR SHUTDOWN AND LOCKUP OPTIONS
================================================================
Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
----------------------------------------------------------------
If you have access to another system that DOES have shutdown
and lockup:
1. Insert a formatted diskette into Drive A of a system that has
the shutdown and lockup options.
2. Go to an OS/2 Window and from the root directory type:
EAUTIL DESKTOP ATTRIB.MOD /S /P
If you installed 2.1 over 2.0 or are using 2.0 type:
EAUTIL OS!2_2.0_D ATTRIB.MOD /S /P
3. Copy ATTRIB.MOD from the root directory of the hard disk to
diskette. Type:
COPY ATTRIB.MOD A:
4. Remove the diskette from Drive A and take it to the system
that is missing shutdown and lockup.
5. Start the system from the installation diskette.
6. When prompted, insert diskette 1 and press Enter.
7. At the Welcome Screen, press Esc to go to the A: prompt.
8. Remove diskette 1 and insert the diskette with the ATTRIB.MOD
file.
9. From the root directory of your hard disk, type:
EAUTIL DESKTOP A:ATTRIB.MOD /J /O /P
If you installed 2.1 over 2.0 or are using 2.0, type:
EAUTIL OS!2_2.0_D A:ATTRIB.MOD /J /O /P
10. Revove the diskette and restart the system. Shutdown and
lockup is now on the desktop menu.
----------------------------------------------------------------
If you DO NOT have access to another system that has the
"Shutdown and "Lockup" options, use the following procedure.
This takes you to a DEFAULT desktop. You lose your
customization.
1. Start the system from the installation diskette.
2. When prompted, insert diskette 1 and press Enter.
3. At the Welcome Screen, press Esc to go to the A: prompt.
4. Remove diskette 1 and insert diskette 2, which contains the
CHKDSK command.
5. Type the appropriate CHKDSK command, followed by the drive on
which OS/2 resides and press Enter.
X: denotes the drive where OS/2 resides.
FAT file system, type: CHKDSK X: /F
HPFS file system, type: CHKDSK X: /F:2
If you installed from CD, the prompt stops at CD drive in
the DISK_1 subdirectory, change to the DISK_2 subdirectory.
If there are crosslinked files, copy the files that are
crosslinked the hard disk to diskette. Delete the files on
the hard disk and copy the files from the diskette to the
hard disk.
6. Remove the diskette and press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart the
system.
7. At the prompt, go to the drive that has OS2. Change to your
OS/2 subdirectory and type:
DEL OS2.INI
DEL OS2SYS.INI
If you get "Access Denied" type:
ATTRIB OS2*.INI -R
You can now delete the files.
8. From your OS2 subdirectory, type:
MAKEINI OS2.INI INI.RC and press Enter.
MAKEINI OS2SYS.INI INISYS.RC and press Enter.
9. Change back to your root directory.
Delete entire DESKTOP directory structure, including DESKTOP
directory itself, if you have more than one desktop
directory, do the same for each one.
If you are using OS/2 2.0 the DESKTOP directory name is
OS!2_2.0_D. If your system is formatted HPFS you must include
directory names with spaces in them in double quotes. You
must remove all files in a directory before you can remove
it. Also, you cannot be in the directory when you try to
remove it.
10. From the root directory, type:
ATTRIB WP?ROOT.?SF -H -R -S and press Enter.
DEL WP?ROOT.?SF and press Enter.
7. Remove the diskette and restart the system.
