I was cleaning off my desk today, picking up some of the clutter and carting it down to the basement archives when I ran across this sheet of stickers that made me smile. It got me to thinking…
Some months back I was participating in a discussion of old operating systems and talk turned to OS/2. I decided then that it might be fun to try to install Warp in a VM for goofs. Back in the dark ages even though the bulk of the install was from CD you needed to boot the install from floppy. It took some searching to find an old laptop that still had a working floppy drive, but find one I did and soon had the required floppy images.
It didn’t matter. The install failed.
That was under VMware Server 1-point-something-or-other. I soon learned that VMware didn’t support loading OS/2.
Oh well, it could have been fun.
It’s simple! Just look at the name: OS/2. You got a divide-by-2 error while installing! ROFL
