I have been running OS/2 for years, from version 1.2 all the way to Warp
ver 3.0 with fixpack 26, and never have I had so many problems updating
as when updating to Warp ver 4.0.

In two separate areas of the installation the installation program
generates a general protection error and I end up with a system with
vital parts missing.

There is no multimedia device support (soundblaster), and absolutely no
network (not even the installation program mentioned on page 72).

I tried reinstalling from scratch, being very carefull to ensure that
both the multimedia settings I entered and the network settings were
correct (slip dial in network, previosly the Intenet Access Kit).

Exactly the same problem with the second install, two general protection
errors and no network and multimedia support.
Now my patience with IBM installation programs was getting a bit
strained, so I started to edit my config.sys by hand.

After including a few device lines from my old config.sys I was able to
get multimedia up and running, and after selectively reinstalling
multimediasupport, and removing the device lines I added, I even got
multimedia to work as it is supposed to.

But I Have found absolutely no way of even finding a reference to
network or network installation in what is on my disk now.
What do I do ?
How do I get a second chance at network installation when there is no
"Selective Install Network" menu on the desktop ?

Every time I start a new installation my old desktop gets embedded
another layer deeper into the hierarchy, and I really doubt that I can
achieve anything by attempting. 
Isn't there a way of getting the network installation program off of the
CDROM and starting it by hand?

I havent tried accessing the maintenance desktop yet, but I dont think
It will have the missing reference. I guess the network installation
program coredumped at such an early time that no files were unpacket and
no desktop objects were created.

I spent the entire newyears day trying to upgrade OS/2.

Would anyone please help me, I am getting a bit desperate.
