[WarpCast] Warp 3, add a new fixpak! - 10/04/99 |
Warpstock 99 - Atlanta, October 16-17, 1999 Two fun filled days of OS/2 and YOU! Registration discount has been extended to October 14th! Visit http://www.warpstock.org for full details ******************************************************* Source: Roderick Klein (rwklein@wxs.nl) Moderator: Trevor Smith (trevor@haligonian.com) ******************************************************* Jerry McBride has written a REXX script that patches the OS/2 system files syslevel.os2 and syslevel.mpm to allow application of FixPaks greater than #40. This little application actually fools the CSF installer into thinking the target system is a LanServer 4.0 installation thus allowing the update of Warp 3. The script will run on any OS/2 system but is designed for Warp 3.0 (Blue Spine). You can use the script on a Warp 3 (Red Spine) installation if you do not use WinOS2. What a clever way to extend the life of Warp 3! The script is on Hobbes, currently at: http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/B110.zip And its proposed resting place is: http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/apps/B110.zip ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
