how do you tube you're looking at theinsides of the IBM personal computer 340that I unbox in a previous video you cansee we have this all set up ready to getto work what I'm going to do is add acouple cards we're going to add an audiocard and we're going to add a PCI cardnow the purpose of this video series isput os/2 warp 3.0 connect on thismachine so os/2 warp had a very selectnumber of audio cards sound cards thatwould work with one of them has driversavailable still and I'll point that outhere it is the sonic audio PCI card nowif you can read the chip there hopefullythat's focused enough for youit's an es 1371 chipnow these ensoniq audio PCI cards weremade over many years and they includeddifferent chipsets numbered 1371 13701370 1373 now the os/2 drivers onlyreally work with the es 1371 chipset sothat's why I had to hunt down this cardnow in order to get my speakers to workwhich are USB powered speakers we'regoing to put in this via chipset now USBis really not used it's not used by os/2at least notthe original Louis - eventually therewere USB drivers for LS - but it didn'tstart out that way so we're gonna putthe PCI card the USB card in I wasn'tcrazy about the voyage upset for the USBbut this is all I had at the momentsince I'm only using it for power to aUSB port hopefully this will work justfine it's already cleared the slot blankto the pci port on this side we'll getthat in IBM used slotted screws I'm notcrazy about it but they're all slottedthroughout the system they're a lotharder to manage for meyou can see I'm having trouble alreadyfinding the damn squirrel holethis is embarrassing isn't it would beif it were youlet's start this with my fingers yeahokay that's unsecurednow the other PCI slot is on the otherside of this riser board to get to thatto get to install anything there is aplate holding the slop like sin on theside so I didn't have to remove thisscrew hereonce that plate is loose all of the slawplanks are loose so we're going to pullone out hopefully without disturbing theother two underneath I'm going to grabour audio card here and we're going tostick it in let's clear some space sothe first one or is that second one it'sgoing to have to go into some space outof the way it is the first one okay itthere we go so that is in now the trickis to get this plate back in placewithoutand that's disturbing the slot blankslower downmm-hmmthat is a weird fit I don't like thatany better herethis is not going as well as it shouldsee if I can get a better angle on itthis way there we goit's not perfect but it's gonna have todo the problem I don't know if it's somevisible is there's not enough of a gapin between the PCI board and the the thebacking plate for the little lip on thisto fully seat well but I can't get it inclose enoughget the screw in herenow the perfect fit but it certainlyshould hold everything in place andthat's the point of the system they haveiBM has here with this case it's notgreat it could be a lot it could beengineered a little better than this butthat's what we have to work with so theyhave the audio card in place we have theUSB card in place everything else prettymuch staying the same so let's get thecover back on this that feels feels goodall around okay that should do itokay you got a couple extra slop blanksput those down well let's see and turnthis up on its side here that's the wayit's going to have to operate now I dohave LS to warp connect the bonus packand the boot diskettes the audio carddid come with a driver disc but I don'tthink we're going to use it because Idon't think they put os/2 drivers on thedisk but we'll see I have the driversdownloaded okay I'm going to cut thevideo right here and what we'll do isI'll get this set up with the keyboardand mouse and we'll be right back okaywe're back YouTube and we're ready Ihave the system all plug together wehave our installation media right hereso we're going to go for it and put thefloppy in the floppy disk drive turn thecomputer on and see what happenslet's get the work where's the warp diskOh crud I think I know where I left thewarp disk I got to go get it okaywe shall well you know what let's turnthis on the screen there's eventually itwill come up with the OS to boot hereoff the floppies while I go get try andget the disk out of where it is onemomentwe'll just do this it'll take me a fewminutes to get the CD out of where it isthe drive it's in so bear with mejust have toopen up a DVD drive see you I'm drivinga different computer it's not plugged in[Music]there we go sorry about that so let'ssee if we can get this cd-rom drive inthe CD a cd-rom disc in the drive that'swhat I meant to say I'm gonna flip thesetwo little caches so we can use thisdrive vertically now there we go just intimefantasticthat drive is a little huh me isn't itokay we're gonna go for advancedinstallation we're going to accept thedriveand hopefully it'll ask us to format it[Music]yes format partition and we're gonnachoose the hpfs filesystem forperformance reasons hpfs was a filesystem developed by Microsoft employeesfor os/2 back when os/2 was a jointproject between Microsoft and IBM backin 1988 or 89 it was first availablefirst made available I believe with os/21.2 it could have been 1.1 but I thinkit was 1.2 now it's one point I'd haveto look that upI now I'm tempted to say 1.1 os/2 1.1it allowed greater volumes greater sizefilings that broke the eight-point-threedas barrier for filenames allowing 256255 character file names and what elsedid it have it had built-in featuresthat fought fragmentation of placedfiles close together and what else didit do did a number of other things andallow for extended attributes so filescould have metadata for the first timeand the operating system could use thatmetadata you know however the developersfelt it was needed to be used and userscould use that metadata you could placeo descriptions of files in the extendedattributes you could it held mime typedata I believe so applications knew whatfiles belong to what applicationsso this part the first part of theinstall goes pretty quicklyreally just copying the base of theoperating system onto the hard driveafter this we will reboot and there areat least two other portions of theinstallation the first being most of thegraphical part of the operating systemthe remainder of the operating systemthat is and the networking componentsnow what it does recognize this 3m is aEthernet card but we're not going to beusing it at least not yet not for alittle while because os/2 back in1994-95 did not ship with a DHCP clientor at least not one that networks withmodern routers I don't believe itactually had a DHCP client when itshipped that was made available a littlelater through fix packs which we'll getinto eventually right now we're justgoing to do the installation of os/2 andleave it at that and then the next videowe'll be going into configuring LS togetting the audio drivers and the videodrivers loaded applying fix packs whatit took day-to-day you know day-to-daymaintenance and running about as towhich if you did this in the past andthe 90s when it was current you got alot more experience that readied readiedme for the world of Linux finding youknow being conscious of Hardware limiteddriver support and a hard work findinghardware that works with the operatingsystem is sure that Windows users andespecially Mac users don't really haveto deal with Mac users don't deal withat all but Windows users do have to finddrivers if they're not if they didn'tbuy the hardware new if you buy hardwarenew it comes with Windows driversthere's no reason to go hunting for themok so let's remove the diskette andpress Enterwe could put these up out of the way alittle bit and we should start bootinginto well the rest of us chooseinstallation now this monitor isn'treally appropriate to the time os/2 warpone it's an LCD and two it's a widescreen neither one that were well LCDsmight have been on the market back thenbut they were probably about ten grandI think LCD screens were actually on themarket back then but they were so I andthat you didn't see them as a normalperson he did to see themokay we're getting into our Senateprogram you know Nicole now it diddetect or at least that gave us thebrand of the logic the display adapterthat's fine SVGA is what we want it tobe other cd-rom support I believe that'sfine let's see what our choices are sowe'll just go with non-listed IDE cd-romnow I don't believe we're going to findthe right audio driver had a verylimited number of audio drivers built inwe'll do that after installation solet's say okay here we're not going toinstall a printer super VGA is finethat's what we wantokay we're going to include everythingnow everything is fonts documentationsystem utilities and we can go in andsee more if we wantso we want all of these all of this isoptional the utilities here quite aquite a few of them actually wecertainly don't want to be able tomanage partitions view pictures nowtheir picture view is very limitedcreate utility discs of course we'llwant to do that and be able to of coursetools and games now comes with solitairechess and mahjong but we also want anenhanced editor which is a editor a texteditor more geared towards programmersos/2 das support we certainly want thatwind support now this is the blue spineedition so it does include Windows 3.1capability and I'll built in so we wantall the hat multimedia we're going toget the multimedia working so we want toinclude it and let's go ahead andinstall now here's the step we want toadd existing programs to our desktop ifwe don't do this we're not going to geticons created for us automatically onour desktop so let's go ahead and dothatand we do want to install networkingeventually we might get there but we'llsee but I'll install it anyway now weonly really need the tcp/ip we don'tneed that we're a clientokay it has discovered our Ethernet cardwhich is good so let's go into settingsokay all we really had to do was say yesthey're tcp/ip let's say IP address I'mjust going to create one on my localnetworkpretty high up see if that works I don'tthink it willHossein but I'll just call this warp andinstall we can always change thosesettings later if we happen to get thenetwork really working but that shouldjust get us enough to get us startedbecause we part of the part of the choreof maintaining running OS - back in theday and applies any time you run it butis applying fix packs and it's a processand it can be done in a number of waysthe easiest ways if your network cardwas supported out of the box andconfigured properly and os/2 is stillsupported product you could do it onlineyou could download the updates onlineover the network the internet and itwork it should've worked I never hadbroadband in the 90s I never had aworking network card under os/2 I neverneeded it because I had to use dial-upand I was to work perfectly fine with myexternal modemI kept external modems because the windmodems the internal ones the wind modemswere impossible to get to work in os/2and internal modems were tricky becauseof driver issues external modems thatconnected to a serial port they justworked it could be any brand didn'tmatter so I always had an external modemback in the 90s because the modem wastotally Hardware a self-containedhardware and the serial port you knowevery operating system could work aserial port modem no problem no problemgetting on line with Linux back in theday in the late 90s with a serial modemno problem with os/2 no problem would beOS they all just worked just fine withthat external modem but moments aregoing with this oh yeah fixed backinstallations fix packs were distributedby isIBM in a couple of different formats onewas disc images a serious you know acollection of disk images which you hadto download each disk image extracted toa floppy and then run the setup theupdating setup program from the firstfloppy and it would prompt you for therest and hopefully your downloadsweren't corrupted and your disk writingdidn't you know went well didn't corruptthe the discs and everything workedperfectly that was one way doing it youalways had to have some floppies youknow at least 10 to 17 floppy flyingaround to do that because that's howmany floppies it took the other way wasdownload all the floppy disk imagesextract them into a folder on your harddrive and run the setup program rightfrom the hard drive now that was a loteasier a lot quicker he didn't need allthat this a lot more reliable and that'sthe way we're going to be I'm going tobe demonstrating how to apply fix packsto os/2 it's that method I have all thedisk image files archived I haven'tmount a CD ROM easy enough to pop itinto the machine copy the files to thehard drive extract them go about ourbusiness supply the fix packs so that'swhat that's a method I'll be using theother method was to download instead ofdisk images download zip files extractthe zip files and basically run theinstallation program from the zip filesthe extracted zip files now to me that'sno different than extracting disk imagesso I've only our kind of disk image diskimages of the fix packs that I needbecause once you extract them in theprocess is pretty much the same useslightly different software the benefitof thezip files over the disk images is well Idon't know if any benefit really doesthe disk image files are more flexiblebecause if you wanted to write them toofloppy you could but you didn't have toso that's what we'll be doing later onin the process here as I said this firstvideo is really just to look at theinstallation of OS to the hardware andthe next video will be using those twomaintaining it now os/2 for a little bitof history for those who don't knowstarted development back in 1985 87right around there I know was well thathave been announced in 87 but Microsoftand IBM might have been working on itbefore then I don't really know but by87 IBM and Microsoft released I was to1.0 didn't include a GUI it was a just acommand line operating system but it wasa bit more robust quite a bit more thanrobust in dose required a more resourcesto run could multitask OS to programscouldn't no us multitask das programscould run one das program at a time backthen os/2 1.1 came out added I believethe hpfs file system for larger hard tosupport better more efficient hard diskspace management more filename optionsother features like thatit also included os/2 presentationmanager which maybe one day I'll be ableto get a will do an installation ofOwens 21.3 just to get a look atpresentation manager which followed veryclosely the Windows 3 look or thewindows even the window it might haveeven been windows to look and thenpresentation manager under os/2 onepoint three followed the Windows threelook so very similar looking structurein internally there were quite differentof course but on the on the surface theylook similar now allows to theinstallation now we're doing 3.0 herewhich remains my favorite version of OSstill I've tried os/2 2.0 about 2.1excuse me to be more accurate I've usedos/2 warp 4.0 and three was my hisremains my favorite floor was nicebecause it was better with some newermore current Hardware back in 95 96 butI prefer the look and feel the iconsjust the overall look and feel of or 3.0it will connect installationnow this was available on floppies toinstall if it's taking this longfrom cd-rom imagine how much longerfloppy installation of os/2 warp wouldtake now I don't know if warp connectwas available on floppies I think warpConnect was cd-rom released only but therigid the regular version of warp justos/2 warp 3.0 was definitely availableon floppies first that's how I had toinstall it when I first bought itnow eventually I bought cd-rom of warp 3connectorsI believe the disk of installing off ofis well I have several a couple copieswell as to warp over the years havecollected well restart automatically okbut I believe this particular disk isone of my originals that I bought backin 1995 now I have an unopened copy ofwarp 3 Kinect Blu spy and I have an opencopy of warp 3 Kinect red spine andthose are purchased after the fact ascollector collectible items just to havea nice reference um you know pristinereference copy I don't know we can seethe driver is loaded for the Ethernetcard of course it's not going to findit's not going to be able to make anEthernet connection because there's nocablebut elusive drivers right recognize thecardyeah there's one erroras I said eventually we may be able toget this os/2 warp online I'm notparticularly hopeful and it won't happentoo soonbut it mightat least having the eath and thatadapter recognized and the driver loadscorrectly it's a good startonce we applied the tcp/ip and thenetwork card the drivers updated applythe fix packs for those who knows maybethe DHC will will be included in one ofthose tcp/ip fix packs and if it is youmight just be able to get this onlinewithout too much trouble what we'll beable to do online is next to nothingbecause the browser and warp was wellnow it's ancient that it was even whenit was released web Explorer was apathetic browser ok warped Connect hascompleted pretty darn cool let's rebootthe system I'll remember to take thecd-rom drive out of the cd-rom discs outof the drive this time stuff got stuckin the same situation as I was todaybecause we should not need theinstallation CD in there any longerdon't debating if I should install thebonus pack yeah let's do thatlet's install the bonus pack give yousome idea what that's like sweetie wedon't we won't need the fixed packsaround for thatyeah Network is unreachable I knowI know that error is there so here wehave our SVG a desktop I know we'llinstall the graphics drivers but we haveto do fix packs I believe before thegraphics drivers but here is the os/2warp 3 a desktop we have our launch padwhich is what OS IBM called this dockbasically it's called the launch pad andyou can see the icon is running theindication that it's running are thelines to read the icon and we just coverup the icon with the actual launch padand we can shut down we can lock thecomputer from here find I believe it'sjust like search cameras driving mecrazyhopefully it'll stay focused I find it'sjust a search and find feature windowlist if you have programs running thedesktop is running it's a program thelaunchpad is running it's a programwould be here now if you notice thewindow controls you have a maximize andminimize and then you have a controlheredouble-clicking on that left widget willclose the window MPTsis the name for the multi BM multi-porttransport services basically the driversfor network cards and their setup sowe're not going to be doing that rightnowOSU system is where most of what youwill be using day-to-day resides youhave a link to your drives you have alink to command prompts so we have os/2window which looks a lot like a DOSwindow and when you try to close itgraphically you get this warning youhave a full-screen os/2 there you go andif you just exit from this should beback in the desktop dos fullscreen DOSwindow as I said os/2 includes a releaseof loose part of a blue spine for theBlues spine edition includes t winWindows 3.1 built in so let's take alook at thathmmI thought it walked up on me but it wasjust taking its sweet time so here youhave your windows 3.0 a window stsession and you can see it looks a lotlike windowsI don't want to minimize that you knowthe minimize windows viewer is whereyour minimize programs go there we gothat's about my wanted so you have allyour basic Windows 3.1 programs thatcome with Windows and you can run yourWindows software it's pretty cool whenyou close it you're ending your OS towin os/2 session and you notice now it'sno longer minimized it's no longer inour minimize windows viewer a folderalso gets those lines when the folder isopen pretty cool so here are the gamessystem setup is a whole bunch of I guesswhat you could call control panels asystem clock keyboard selective installdevice driver install those are specialsystem itself we open the system you seehere is where we set our resolution wedon't have a whole lot of choice we canset our settings like do we want toconfirm on delete folder delete do wewant to confirm on file delete confirmon rename the files with extensions soyou can change the behavior here promptfor appropriate action when you try torename a file with the already namedfile set the window preferences here youcan enable or disable animation let'sminimize window behavior minimize windowto viewer you can minimize it to desktopas well and here there are pages so thatare in the window tab there are actuallymultiple pages folder automatic closeautomatically close a folder view whenopening objects contained within nowit's set to never by default yourdesktop will get very crowded I'll leaveit at that for the time beingdefault folder view is icon view whichis fine but if you like tree or detailsyou can change that here enable ordisable type-ahead ok print screen isenabled logo is shown for two secondsand you can change the icon or the tightof this particular system control panelyou can see along the left side hereArwa are supposed to be a graphic for abinding paper binder and pages thesesettings are what's called setting thisbooks and every object has them whetherit's you know a document file if you goto settings your the settings for thedocument file same concept a book formatwith tabs and pages your cos who comeswith a lot of documentation if youinstall it which we did we had programsif you have the program on your on afloppy disk you can start the install ofthe program here more than likely youwant to use the setup program that camewith the set up actually add programsmight be heading program icons to thedesktopI'd have to revisit that a spooler isyour print spooler country setting soundfonts power for laptop users schemepalette color palette mix palettes tochange color settings and schemes nowunder scheme palette you have quite afew schemes to choose fromlet's try oneyeah okay so let's try this schemedrag items to target window hold alt keyfor system default change okay so we'regoing to hold the Alt key and drag thisnow drag is with the right button notthe left button ooh that marble looksawful but you can see the you can seethe change so change the background itchanged the color schemes of the windowborders let's try a night music now oncewe got the graphics drivers and solvethese might look quite a bit better solet's go back to the default becausethat's actually the most soothing to myeye but that's how you go ahead andchange the look and feel in one fellswoop you can change any of the settingswithin any of the schemes the paletteschemes to whatever you want and createyour own look you can create your ownlook within each folder if you havestartup programs that are runningthey'll be in the startup folder you canplace icons and programs you want tostart up with the system right here aswell under productivity we have theregular system editor the enhanced thesearch for files basically an iconeditor pulse which is almost uselessthat's a teeny little pulse monitorCPU yeahclipboard Viewer for if I copy and pastethe text and picture viewer if you wantto install or remove components of warpyou can do that through the Erb moreselectively install selective uninstallif you want to get rid of something tcpremove okay warp connect remote installso if you are on a network and youwanted to install over the network youcan do that pretty goodokay this is run long enough so I'm notgoing to go into the bonus pack I willshow you just a little bit more herethen when they open up the drive for youthe default is this tree if youdouble-click on the drive you'll get awindow for you and icon view if Iright-click anywhere in here and go tosettings this is the settings for thisfolder okay I don't always like a floodicon setting much nicer than the nonflood or non grid small size is finewith meif you choose invisible you will not seeyour icon it's not a good choice let'ssee you can set backgrounds for each andeverylet's go with solid color there we goyou set background so if you want[Music]that's pretty great isn't itjust go back to whiteokayless to warp of us to uses config sis asits primary configuration or its initialconfiguration file for your operatingsystem this is something you can getinto later as well it is a text file andwhen you open it up it's a lot biggerthan daus's config says whoops I want toscroll down too far but it loads driverssets up in environment variables andsets the shell and tells os/2 where tohold its desktop settings basically inthese two files - ini files veryimportant for your system PM shell isthe name of the GUI basically that'swhat's providing your graphical userinterface is p.m. shell dot exe it doesauto start or it sets a shell to cmd.exewhich is OS two's command line and itthen runs let's the auto starts programstask list folders this is a setting thatone could change you can remove programstask list folders connections you canremove all that from auto start becausesay you run a program and that programis causing problems and every time werestart their program restarts mightwant to edit their OS - can fix this andremove the word programs and that way itwon't restart the next auto start thenext time you restart andhave a chance diagnose problem veryclean D to be able to do that set thelib path and the past statements here Dpath is for dll so that's search or whythere's a D path and a lib path butthey're both basically library paths sothere you go that's a quick and dirtylook at the config sis you can see thereare backups of config sis zero zero zerompge TCP and these are backups done ofconfig sis during installation it'salways a good ideaany time you changed can fix thisback it up first number it serves zeroone zero or two whatever is the next inline make your changes try to reboot seeif your changes worked if they didn'trevert back to the last saved goodconfigs this file so there you go quickand dirty look at os/2 warp 3.0 in thefuture videos we will get more in depthwith warp but I hope you enjoyed this sofar next video on warp will be fixedpacks and device drivers so look forwardfor that bye bye
