Steven,

I am not trying to add SDSCI support or any thing else. I just want to be
sure I have everything needed to boot OS/2 from my maintenance partition
so I can run a backup program other than Disk Image from there.

Do I understand you correctly when I conclude that all I have to do is add
the maintenance partition letter and name to the Boot Manager menu without
any qualifier like "bootable"?

Jack

P.S. Thanks for the information about kernel identification.
