OS/2 - Can't install VBox Guest Additions

Post by Paolo_R »

I've installed OS/2 4.52 Warp on Virtual Box. When I press 'Install Guest Additions' on the VB menu bar it 'loads' the .ISO.

In OS/2 I open an OS/2 window and go to drive d: where the VBoxWindowsAdditions are. When I execute VBoxWindowsAdditions-x86.exe (or -amd64) I get 'The name VBoxWindowsAdditions-x86 is not recognized as an internal or external command. operable program or batch file'.

I've tried running it from the VBoxAdditions folder and the 32bit folder.

The question is: how can I get a proper full-screen view of OS/2?

Thanks

OK, I've figured it out. Just changed the screen resolution in OS/2 and that worked fine.
