when i migrated to os/2 2.0 i did the same thing.  when i installed
i left a small dos partition as my c drive.  this partition had an
autoexec.bat and config.sys that loaded pcnfs.  then in os/2 i
copied my dos window and set the dos setting "boot drive" to "c".  
when i open this dos box it loads the config.sys and autoexec.bat
with pcnfs.  dont open more than one dos box with pcnfs though or
you will have port conflict problems.

hope this helps-
