- Before anything else in "libpath" you can define another directory.
- My "personal space" for os2 id called "c:\os2bin" so I made a directory called
- DLL in c:\os2bin and put my "new /untried DLL files" in there.
-
- Then after rebooting, I made a directory called BAK in the folder the DLL
- files normally live in, and used the os2 command line to move ONLY THE
- REPLACED ONES to "BAK".
-
- BTW... are you "dual boot"? Do you use HPFS? If you're using HPFS, get
- se20boot.zoo and make a boot disk, in case you mess up somehow!
