TP 755CD/CDV - No access to CD-ROM after warm dual boot to Warp
Applicable to: World-Wide
Description:
When using the Select-A-System ThinkPad 755CD, warm dual booting to Warp from DOS/Windows does not provide access to the CD-ROM
Solution:
To obtain access to CD-ROM after warm dual booting to Warp:
1. Fully exit from Windows and return to a "C" prompt;
2. Change to the OS/2 directory (i.e. - CD\OS2);
3. Type the command BOOT /OS2 /N and press the enter key;
4. When the system asks if you want to continue, type a Y (for yes) and press enter;
5. When you receive the next "C" prompt, turn off the machine, wait a few seconds and turn the machine on.
The machine should now boot to WARP and the CD-ROM drive should show up in the DRIVES icon within the OS/2 System folder.
