       1.0   OS/2 WARP Server for e-business installation diskette
             support upgrade for IBM Netfinity servers 4500R and
             5100.

             1.1 Overview

                 - IBM Netfinity Servers continue to deliver support
                   for OS/2 WARP Server for e-business v4.5. Because
                   of recent advances in server technology, the
                   original diskette-based or CD based installation of
                   OS/2 (non-CID installation) was becoming extremely
                   difficult. To remedy this situation, IBM NetFinity
                   Server development is releasing an updated
                   installation diskette to streamline and ease the
                   installation process under OS/2 for IBM Netfinity
                   Servers 4500R and 5100.

             1.2   Level of Recommendations for the Update

                   - IBM strongly recommends this updated diskettes
                     to customers who want to install OS/2 WARP Server
                     for e-business on IBM Netfinity 4500R or 5100
                     series servers.

                     1 with this diskette. You will need Diskettes 0
