=======================================================================
OS/2 Warp Installation Fails on System with Intel Mercury
Core Logic Chip Set
=======================================================================
Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
--------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
Installation of OS/2 Warp fails at the logo screen of Diskette 1.
Pressing Alt+F2 does not show any drivers being loaded. This problem
occurs on a Gateway 2000 P560 system. The BIOS on the Pentium system
boards (AMI Version 1.00.03.AF1) is in conflict with Intel's Mercury
Core Logic chip set.
RESOLUTION
Gateway Computers is aware of this problem and is providing a free
flash ROM BIOS upgrade on their BBS (605-232-2224). The BIOS version
that will solve the problem is 1.00.06.AF1. This new version also has
LBA translation capability.
