IBM OS/2 Thread

I had also used these instructions for partitioning the hard drive before installing, do note that the drive I used was a 1GB compact flash with a IDE converter.
OS/2 does not support SATA to my knowledge.

I cracked the bootable/non bootable issue.

When you first boot select Expert Install > Show FDISK
Press enter on the blank space and select "install bootloader" (this MUST be done first)
Press enter on blank space and create a 500MB partition (any more and you cannot make it bootable)
Press enter on your 500MB partition and select "set installable"
Press enter on your 500MB partition and select "make bootable", enter a name of your choice and hit enter
Press enter on your 1MB Bootloader partition and select "Edit boot settings" then press "D" (for Default) and OS/2 will add the name you entered above to the boot menu
Use the rest of your space as you like
F3 > Save and Exit FDISK
