My sincere thanks to everyone (Bill Morrow, James H. E. Maugham, Mike
Lingenfelter, Michael Geary, Adam Quantrill, and anyone else I missed) who
made suggestions on how to use the emergency repair disk with my new 18G
HDD on my TP600E.
After a couple of false starts (hint: the startup CD really likes it if
you've actually formatted the new disk already and it should be FAT16 for
*a little more than* the first 2Gig), I now have a working TP600E once
again.
So now ... when I boot up into Win98, I get two messages that worry me, and
one more problem. The two messages are:
(1) Too many parameters
(2) Cannot execute file ps2main.exe
File not found
Message (1) I have no idea about. As for message (2), I figured out that
ps2main is in c:\thinkpad, and my autoexec.bat file looks like this:
@ECHO OFF
SET PATH=C:\Thinkpad ;
SET PS2MSG=C:\THINKPAD\PS2.MSG
REM The following line is for hibernation.
C:\Thinkpad\Ps2.EXE HFILE C
REM The following line is no longer needed. It may be deleted.
If Exist C:\MFGBOOTI.REG C:\WINDOWS\REGEDIT C:\MFGBOOTI.REG
mode con codepage prepare=((850) c:\windows\COMMAND\ega.cpi)
mode con codepage select=850
set PATH=%PATH%;D:\Program Files\vim\vim56
So I don't understand why it can't find ps2main.exe (and I don't
understand why my dos shells don't reflect the PATH set up here either.
The last line should allow gvim.exe to be found in my path.)
Any further enlightenment (he said, gnomishly) greatly appreciated!
