Hello to everyone:I have Windows, ecs, and Ubuntu on a T61 here (actually I pulled the hard drive and stuck in it a Z61M now). I have all 3 on the Boot manager and then installed grub on its own 7Mb partition (smallest I could create). I did this because I could not get Ubuntu to boot correctly from Grub when I tried to put it in the Ubuntu partition. Oddly, Debian did not have that problem when I had tried it. I installed Ubuntu on JFS but I created the Grub partition as ext2. I don't recall what was being seen by eCS initially but it was causing an internal processing error on boot (even from CD). I believe I hid the Grub extension as I recall.
I need to install OS/2-eCS2.0 (RC6a) and Ubuntu (or rather the Kubuntu variety) on a T61p. Does someone in this newsgroup have some experience? I wonder what one should do:
1. Try to multi-boot Kubuntu and eCS? Would this work?
2. Install Kubuntu and run eCS in a virtual machine as a guest? (64 bit VMWare 4.0 supports OS/2 4.51)
3. Install VMWare and run Kubuntu and eCs as guests? (The T61p processor is a T9300, ready to support virtual machines.)
If someone knows of a "how-to" to do any of the three choices above, could you please let me know? Any help or clue you might be able to give is appreciated!
