eComStation v2.0 RC1 – Let’s install it!

Posted by Kim Haverblad – Monday, 02 July 2007

Since the latest Release Candidate for eComStation has been released and it has some new interesting features as well. We wanted to take a look at it to see how easy it is to install. Why? Well, for many users the installations procedure has been and still are a painfull chapter when it comes to OS2 and eComStation. So with this article we will primary focus on how easy this RC1 release installs on various hardware.

The hardware
So to give this new version of eComStation a test ride we need some hardware to test it on and we have done our best to test it on various hardware of various age. Hopefully this should give us an indication of how easy or hard it is to install the new version of eComStation. Also to be mentioned is that we won’t try to break our necks to get it installed, so at one point or another we will give up without doing extensive tweaking of the system. We will keep the tweaking part for the next article where we will look deeper on the new features. The focus is primary to figure out how well it installs and nothing else.

Here are the systems that we used for this review;

Workstations:

• ABit IS7-E using Matrox G550 and with Intel P4 2.66 GHz FSB 800MHz
• Shuttle XPC Barebone SK22G2 with AMD Athlon 64 X2 CPU

Notebooks:

• Acer Aspire 1350 with AMD XP 2600+
• Dell Inspiron 8600 with Intel Pentium M processor 1.4 GHz
• Lenovo ThinkPad T60 with Intel T2400 (1.83GHz)
• LG F1 22PTV with Intel T2250 (1.73GHz)

Incluyo un review sobre lo que será la nueva versión de Ecomstation 2.0, publicado en OSnews.

Recently, Serenity Systems released the second first release candidate of eComStation 2.0, the successor to IBM’s os/2. Mensys, the online distributor of eComStation and other os/2-related products, was so kind as to provide OSNews with a review copy of this release candidate, and since my experience with os/2 and eCS is not much more than a few failed attempts at installing Warp 4, I was eager to try it out. Read on for a short history of os/2 and eCS and a review of the release candidate.
