Installing DIS/SSS on IBM T30

[mccabema]

Hi.


I have a T30 and DK head.

The T30 is running DIS V56 but it is corrupt.

I need to install/upgrade to V57.

I have V57 iso and also EasyDIS base 44 v1.0 iso

Can anyone tell me how to upgrade or do a re-install?

I don't want to loose SSS/Progman which I can load by hitting space bar at boot and then typing "bootos 3"

Thanks in advance.

Burd them in 12 dvds

No, you don't need windowsxp.

Just a blank 80gb harddrive and dvd drive.

also the 12 dvd and the cd of ghost boot disk that is already include in the archive.
Also there is a guide file showing how to recover the ghost image.

After recovered the image, it is ready to use.

I've tried and it works.

Can I use a regular laptop instead of a T30? I am guessing the only reason to use the T30 is because of the DB9 port, but a USB-DB9 adapter should work fine with any other laptops.

Sure.You can use other laptops instead of T30.

hi, can you give me a type of machine which can operate from DIS IBM T30 or a tutorial explains you well detailed, because I have tried it on another machine and after copying dvd 12 I have this error on startup: Error boot failure Stage1

DELL D610 works fine with DIS.
Here you will find tutorial how to install DIS on VMware:

Sounds like the IBM T30 setup was not configured to boot with other HDD drivers than the one T30 is using. If you do not have a T30 (or compatible) laptop to modify the installation, you can use e.g. UBCD4WIN boot CD to fix the hard drive for your computer. Google for instructions.
