- Your mistake is in running SVGA. It must be executed in a DOS-Full-Screen, not
- OS/2-Full-Screen. Also, do a SVGA STATUS to check that the trident driver has
- been identified correctly.

-
- You can boot up into an OS/2 full screen session via disk #1 and #2. (this is
- described in the manuals)
-
- Various REXX scripts exist to create a single OS/2 floppy boot disk.
-
- Unpack and copy the VGA.DLL to DISPLAY.DLL (in DLL subdirectory), and
- everything should be OK.
