  • OS/2 without GUI?

    From Oli@21:1/151 to All on Wed Oct 30 13:37:20 2019
    Does anyone know if it's possible to install and/or OS/2 without a GUI? I would
    like to run OS/2 on my remoter server in QEMU and it doesn't work that well in
    graphic mode remotely.

    I did run my BBS and Fido node on OS/2, but I forgot most of the stuff (it's unfortunate I didn't keep a backup).

    If memory serves, there was a way to leave out Presentation Manager on install; early versions of OS/2 didn't even come with a GUI.





    ... State the problem as clearly as possible
