From what I can see, IBM this morning updated disk images "1" and "F"
of FixPak 12 for Warp 4, and also replaced the zero-length disk
images "G" & "H" with actual images.

The FixPak can be found at:

  ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/ps/products/os2/fixes/v4warp/english-us

Also, regarding the earlier problems with this FixPak, Irv Spalten
posted the following on comp.os.os2.bugs:

  Subject FP's have been released.

  Boulder did have a SPACE problem, and it appears that FP 12 ran
  into it. Boulder ran out of space, FP 12 and FP 42 has some
  corrupt/missing files. All should be working now. All the FP 12
  RSU date stamps are from today at 6:30 AM. We (IBM) are now going
  to be placing a 'header' file in the FTP directory. For instance,
  you will see this in XR_W042
  
  *
  * Initial Release of OS/2 Warp 3 FP 42
  * 09/30/99
  * Diskette Images XR_W042.1DK to XR_W042.JDK
  *

  In XR_M012 you will see this :

  *
  * Initial Release of OS/2 Warp 4 FP 12
  * 09/30/99
  * Diskette Images XR_M012.1DK to XR_M012.HDK
  * 09/30/99 1:30 PM CST
  * Diskette Image XR_M012.FDK replaced, file was corrupt
  *

  These headers will be updated as we change any file for any
  reason.

  We also know people look for new directories, and grab files. The
  initial headers will now say uploading in progress or not
  verified/incomplete, and then replaced with an official release
  date.

Moderator's Note: When FixPak 12 for Warp 4 was first released some
disk images were zero bytes in length.
