IBM has new SMP, UNI and W4 kernels available on their testcase FTP site - ftp://testcase.boulder.ibm.com/ps/fromibm/os2/- smp1015.zip
- smp1015d.zip
- uni1015.zip
- uni1015d.zip
- w41015.zip
- w41015d.zip
The xxxxxxd.zip archives are debug kernels. These replacement kernels are for post MCP/ACP/W4F15/eCS systems. Installation instructions and a listing of new features and fixes are included in the readme file included with each archive. Also note that these kernels contain a new CLOCK01.SYS. Please read the readme for details on how to use this. There are also new versions of SES - ses1015.zip and files for the system Dump Formatting df1015.zip available in the same directory. As always these are not officially supported by IBM unless they tell you to use them. Please send any followup to comp.os.os2.bugs on usenet. Also note that files are only on IBM's testcase for 2-3 days, so if you want to try these get them now. Make certain you back up any files replaced and don't try these on a production system. You have been warned. There is already a post on comp.os.os2.bugs about someone having a TRAP on boot with one of these new kernels. The SMP1015 kernel booted fine here on my eCS 1.0 test machine.
