OS/2 and eComStation Tools Installation
All of the OS/2 and eComStation tools can be installed from the vmtools.iso CD image.
Network drivers can also be installed from the floppy disk image file vmtools.fdd during
operating system installation. The latter is easier in most cases.
Before starting the installation you should connect the CD-ROM image with Parallels Tools to
your virtual machine CD-ROM drive. Do the following:
Select
Install Parallels Tools in the Parallels Workstation VM menu.
Mouse Synchronization Tool Installation
The Mouse Synchronization Tool consists of the mouse driver and the video filter.
Note: To install the Mouse Synchronization Tool you should have a VESA video driver
installed, such as SDD or GENGRADD. For instructions on how to do this refer to OS/2
documentation.
To install the mouse tool:
1 Click the
Drives icon on the system panel. Select the CD-ROM drive and Drivers\Mouse\OS2
directory on it.
2 Launch the INSTALL.CMD batch file. The INSTALL.CMD copies files and makes
necessary modifications to the CONFIG.SYS file.
3 Restart the guest OS/2 operating system.
