By memory bootmanager from partition manager is actually an implementation
of OS2 that PM uses.  I have a vague recollection that one needs to
reinstall bootmanager again, once Linux is installed, to get things back to
normal.  This I have read, I think, in one of the APV Linux columns, though
it was a convoluted exercise which means it was a hack ?

I also recall that usingf OS2 Warp3 and PM bootmanager caused a few
inconsistencies.  Mainly one or other not recognising the partition table,
and wanting to overwrite the MBR.

hope this points to a new line of enquiry.
