This utility is provided to update the Installation Diskette1
provided by IBM as part of the
IBM OS/2 installation process.
To install OS/2 from CD-ROM on Compaq systems,
storage drivers provided
by Compaq must be added to the OS/2 Installation Diskette
1. This utility will automate
the process of updating the OS/2 Installation Diskette
1 with Compaq specific storage
drivers. This utility requires a machine already running
IBM OS/2.
A blank, formatted 1.44MB floppy diskette will be required
if you choose to modify
a copy of the Installation Diskette 1 instead of the original.
For instructions on the manual process to do this, please refer to the following
readmes in OS/2 SSD Utilities Diskette-1 in HTMLRDR directory :
1) Insert the Compaq OS/2 SSD Utilities Diskette-1 into floppy drive.
2) Change to the floppy drive.
3) Change directory to \CPQSETUP.
4) Run install by typing "install" at the OS/2 command prompt.
5) This will prompt insertion of OS/2 SSD Diskette 4 (System and Storage Drivers) and the
installation completes. Once the installation is complete you will have a folder created
on the desktop titled "Compaq Utilities". In the "Compaq Utilities" folder,
"Compaq OS/2 CD-ROM Installation Setup" folder is created. If "Compaq Utilities" folder
is already present then it is updated with a "Compaq OS/2 CD-ROM Installation Setup" folder.
1) Double click on the "Compaq Utilities" folder.
2. Double click on "Compaq OS/2 CD-ROM Installation Setup" folder present in
"Compaq Utilities" folder.
3) In the open folder, double click on "OS/2 CD-ROM Installation
Setup Utility" icon.

Diskette - 1.
5) You will be asked if you would like to make a copy
of the OS/2 Installation Diskette -1
before modifying the original. If this option is selected,
you will be prompted to insert a
blank, formatted 1.44MB floppy diskette. Once the copy
is complete, the modifications will
occur on the copy of OS/2 Installation Diskette 1. If
the backup copy option is not selected, CPQSETUP will modify the inserted OS/2 Installation Diskette-1.
