V2GB is a new solution for OS/2 users who have trouble running legacy
DOS and Windows program on OS/2 when disks are very large. Problems
occur because disks with more than 2GB of free space can be
interpreted as disks with negative free space.

V2GB fixes this by limiting the amount of free space returned. No
files are created to use up the space; it's just the reporting that
is changed.

V2GB.SYS is an OS/2 virtual device driver, so it doesn't occupy any
real space in the DOS session.
