Hi all.

Has anyone had any luck installing OS/2 Warp 4 on a Gateway 2000
machine?  My configuration is a PII, 128 MB EDO RAM, a Promise
Ultra ATA controller, 2 HD (I'm installing OS/2 on the secondary
one), STB Virge video and some other standard stuff (Sound
Blaster, etc.).  The initial phase of the installation process
seems to go smoothly but when I reboot to continue it simply
hangs when going through the motions creating desktop objects.
Has anyone else had this problem?  I really don't know what
to do...

Thanks in advance for any help.
