Installing OS/2 from USB stick

#1 Post by karotlopj » Fri Jan 27, 2017 10:38 am

Has anyone had any success installing OS/2 from a USB stick?

I have had limited success but very hit and miss

Here is a thread which might help get it working.

If anyone succeeds, please report.

I have never tried it before but it would be interesting to see how it would be done and give it a try. It seems so many computers / laptops don't have an optical drive but usually have USB ports. I will check out the link. 8)

Would something like this work? http://www.isotousb.com/
