Hi,

Can you try the CVS ? I made a specific VGA fix for the OS/2 install (you can see the OS/2 & IBM logo), but there are still problems after.

If OS/2 does not rely on segment limit checks or weird FPU exceptions, then there is a chance that QEMU can launch it soon.

If I remember correctly, at least the early versions of OS/2 DID rely on segment limit checks. This allowed it to do multitaking on 286 processors, and a lot of that mechanism was still used in the 386 code.
