- Yesterday, my OS/2 system was behaving very strangly. The problem
- turned out to be that the OS/2 partition was full. I rebooted and
- looked at what was taking up so much room ( the swapfile was on another
- partition ). The problem was the OS2SYS.INI file. It grew to around 5
- megabytes! I deleted the huge file and replaced it with an older one.
- However, this one is also growing. It started at around 108 K and now
- it's up to 1.5 megabytes. In just one day it grew over a megabyte!
- Does anybody know what the problem might be? Until I find a solution,
- I'll have to replace the INI file every few days. BTW, I have the
- Service Pack installed on a pure GA system so I suspect a bug in the
- Service Pack.
