You have a defective change-line, which is a very common but rather
unimportant fault in diskette drives. To stop OS/2 from trying to use
the change-line, you must edit all config.sys copies. I did this a couple
of times with earlier versions, and remember it took a bit of looking
around to find the source of the config generated during installation.
The settings are:
BASEDEV=IBM1FLPY.ADD /V /A:0 /U:0 /CL:NONE
for only A: drive, and
BASEDEV=IBM1FLPY.ADD /V /A:0 /U:0 /CL:NONE /U:1 /CL:NONE
for bot A: and B: drives

You really should put "POSTER" in the FOLLOWUP-TO field in that case.
And this has nothing in comp.os.os2.apps to do, so I removed that from
the Newsgroups line. Remember that many people use software that
automatically deletes postings that are cross-posted to more than a few
newsgroups or to newsgroups which are not supposed to have much in
common. A massively cross-posted message may meet with less response
than an accurately focused posting, and the responses will often be
of lower quality (many of the more knowledgable prefer to filter out
the noise, killing serious but heavily cross-posted items in the process).
