Installing OS/2 without a FloppyDrive?

[FatRakoon]

I want to install OS/2 Warp onto an old LapTop ( I have my reasons ) but Warp4 and Warp 4.5 Both require me to make up 4 Floppy disks to do teh installation process.

( This is how I had to do my first Win2000 installs funnily enough )

But the thing is, that ...

1 - I dont have a FloppyDrive on the LapTop
2 - I am fed up that even though I have a billion FloppyDisks, every new one I try seems to develop Bad sectors anyway.


So, is there a way I can install OS/2 purely through CD?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, it is supposed to be Bootable, but alas it is not.

I have Warp 4 and 4.5 on legit Disks and I have even tried downloading hookie ones but none are bootable?

Ok, I will follow the link, see where I find myself yeah...

so many thanks on that.

Yup, its an old O/S but its still very powerful even compared to todays O/ses and well... It does a fantastic job.

I want to use it as a file / internet server for my Atari TT & Falcon and I have managed this on Linux, and in OS/2 but funnily enough, not in Windows??? - its as if Windows is deliberately making things hard for me, while the other 2 are trying their best to help me out!

Anyway, I want to go the OS/2 route again as I found it to be just that little bit more geeky than Linux ( Seriously )
