And no, lilo -u /dev/hdc doesn't work.  Complains about a "pre-21" version
Lilo.

Apparently, from reading a few other docs, DOS's FDISK /MBR will do the
trick.  I do read the manuals first, you know, I just don't always know
where to look.

You need to go to the IBM OS/2 Device Driver Repository and update your
install disks. At the same location, you can find GRADD video support. You will
need the GENGRADD. http://www.software.ibm.com/os/warp look for a link for
"download", follow it to the OS/2 Device Driver Repository.
