Hello. I need help fairly urgently please. I have a 200 meg hard disk which I ran os2 off happily. I then bought a 540 which I installed as master (c:) and made the 200 slave (d:). I installed boot manager on the 540 which points to d: (200) to startup. I changed my all of my config.sys c:'s to d:'s and it starts up to a point when I get the message: The workplace desktop could not be located. User INI file or hardfile may be corrupt. I assume it is looking for something on c: still. I have tried rebuilding the /os2/os2.ini and /os2/os2sys.ini files and deleteding wp root. sf as instructed in the manual but to no avail. I have backup copies of both the above ini files. Please help. I am getting very frustrated. -- - Adam Frey Private: adam@eden.apana.org.au - - Melbourne, Australia University: s932562@yallara.cs.rmit.oz.au - ---------- And if it wasn't for the bullet in my breast pocket... -----------
