I would like to run OS/2 1.2 on a monochrome adapter.  Although the documen-
tation says I can do this, the system hangs when I boot.  I imagine it is
trying to display graphics for me.  

Does anyone know how to disable the PM interface and still be able to do
task switching (via Ctrl-ESC, etc.)?  I've tried placing CMD.EXE in the
CONFIG.SYS for the PROTSHELL, but that doesn't seem to give me more than 
one session.
