Everyone,

I know I am slightly behind the times, but I just got the OS/2 developer's 
CD, and I have a few questions about it that maybe a few of you here can
answer.

   1.   From my interpretation, the version of the C Set/2 compiler that
        is on the CD is a beta version.  If it is, then does it have all
        the C Set/2 CSD's already installed, or do I have to FTP and install
        all 22-24 (or however many it is) CSD's?

   2.   I noticed that the CD seems to come with alot of .INF files that
        look like they are the PM API reference, etc.  This is GREAT!!!
        But, I also noticed some files with a .BOO extension.  What are
        these, what are they for?  

   3.   I haven't been keeping up with this group as much as I have 
        comp.os.os2.misc, but I would like to hear any tips/traps to look
        out for when using the C Set/2 compiler, workbench, etc.  

   4.   When I ran INSTALL off of the root directory of the CD, it looked
        like that was to install the beta OS/2 2.0 onto a system.  How do
        I go about gettting just the C compiler, workbench, etc (everything
        else) installed?


Thanks alot for any/all help!
