[Discussion] eCS and other woes

[Niels Jensen]

Hi Brian,

I have also had bad luck with some memory sticks. Some did not work on
either eCS 1.2MR or WinXP Pro, but worked OK on WinXP Home. No idea
why, just gave the sticks away to another happy user.

Only time my eCS 1.2MR on a T42p freeze is when I work in
OpenOffice.org 1.1.4 in either the Writer or the presentation program.

How did you install eCS1.2 MR on the T20? Did you use any migrate
tools? Can eCS 1.2MR see the OS/4 Warp disk? Could it be that programs
launched on eCS are using ini-files on the Warp partition?

Regard, Niels Jensen
