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)
