I have an ESDI drive and a SCSI drive.  I tried to install the 2.1
beta without first doing what the paper said to do.  The install did
not go well; OS/2 got confused about which drive it was installing to.

I then fetched and copied the file as the instructions said, and had
no trouble installing the beta.  (The file is on ftp-os2.nmsu.edu, I
think in /pub/os2/2.0/patches.)
