I had a trap e on the same location (that location might as well be a 
common trap jump point so that it don't us really much, but anyhow) and 
I solved it by loosing up my memory waitstates a bit. I had tweaked them
to the limit in my DOS days (27 fps in 3dbench on my 486/33 :) , but it
was to much for OS/2. I sat my AMI bios to auto config, and the trap 
went away. Also remember that OS/2 don't like 'faster' IDE speed. Keep it
to 8Mhz. 
Trap d is (from the faq):    000D           General protection 

[My speculation] If I remember right is it common for device drivers that 
are porly written/can't keep up with the system.
Good luck.
