Abstract: NETFINITY 5500: HANG with UNATTENDED BOOT / PASSWORD / OS/2


SYMPTOM:

The System hangs at the OS/2 logo screen while booting to OS/2 Warp Server version 4.0.


PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:


FIX:

This problem is fixed with a new level of the IBMKD.SYS driver which will be available in a future fix pack release for OS/2 at which time this RETAIN Record will be updated.


WORKAROUND:

Apply the older level of the IBMKBD.SYS available in OS/2 fix pack 32, diskette # 6. This diskette image may be downloaded from the IBM Website at the following URL:

http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/files.html



The file is a self extracting executable file that will create a diskette that contains a older level of the IBMKBD.SYS driver.
