Hello Jamie,

More important is that the entire partition that OS/2 starts from MUST
be within the first 1024 cylinders. The type os partition can be either
primary or logical partition.

That usually means that the Windows partition has to be moved with a
tool like GParted to make room for OS/2. A 500 Mb partition is enough
for the operating system (120 Mb for Warp 4) and programs.

Also it is recommended that RAM is limited to 64 Mb or less during
installation. I did miss on this myself when trying to install Warp 4
on another machine. After a completed operating system installation it
can be increased again.

The boot manager usually installs at the beginning or end of free space.

Have a nice day,

Holger
