Suntan Special version 0.69

Suntan Special Web edition

Installing on VirtualBox

I am now mainly supporting installation under VirtualBox. Many of the VirtualBox features that need guest operating system support will not run under Warp 4 without Software Advantage. Powering off the VirtualBox requires ACPI support, which is only available from Arca Noae or eComStation.

While running under VirtualBox, Warp4 needs TCP/IP 4.3 from Software Choice or WR_8621 to implement Shared Folders. Both of those were only available to Software Choice or Passport Advantage subscribers.

While running under VirtualBox, Warp4 and MCP both need Arca Noae Software to implement Power Off.

Suntan Special does not yet support Warp 3, which probably has the same restrictions as Warp 4. Earlier versions (2.0, 2.1, 2.11) of OS/2 probably cannot run TCP/IP 4.3.

Virtual Box extensions are not needed for running Suntan Special in VirtualBox. Guest Additions are now installed from the current installation of VirtualBox.
