Adding Object REXX Support to a maintenance partition


To add Object REXX to a maintenance partition (created with BOOTOS2 for 
example) do the following: 
  
   1. Create the maintenance parition without REXX support. (In the 
      statements below I assume that F: is the drive letter for the 
      maintenance partition) 
   2. Create a new directory on the maintenance partition (e.g. F:\OREXX) 
   3. Add the new directory to the PATH, LIBPATH and DPATH statement in 
      the file F:\CONFIG.SYS 
   4. Copy the following files from your existing OS/2 partition with 
      activated Object REXX support to the new directory F:\OREXX: 
        *  \OS2\DLL\NAMEREXX.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\PMREXXIO.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\REXX.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\REXXAPI.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\REXXCRT.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\REXXINIT.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\REXXSC.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\REXXSOM.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\REXXUTIL.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\REXXWPS.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOMD.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOMSEC.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOM.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOMEM.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOMIR.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOMS.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOMTC.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOMU.DLL 
        *  \OS2\DLL\SOMUC.DLL 
        *  \OS2\SYSTEM\REX.MSG 
        *  \OS2\SYSTEM\REXH.MSG 
        *  \OS2\REXXTRY.CMD 
        *  \OS2\PMREXX.EXE 
        *  \OS2\REXXC.EXE 
        *  \OS2\REXX.ICO 
        *  \OS2\REXX.IMG 
        *  \OS2\WPREXX.IMP 
   5. Copy the file BOS2REXX.EXE from the BOOTOS2-Package to the new 
      directory. 
   6. Add the line 
          RUN=F:\OREXX\BOS2REXX.EXE 
      to the file F:\CONFIG.SYS 
   7. Reboot from the maintenance partition and test the REXX support (for 
      example with REXXTRY)
