I have seen a similar problem attempting to install OS/2 v1.1 on non-IBM
machines from IBM disks.  I think there are differences in the hardware
between IBM machines and compatibles, not just the BIOS.  I do not know 
of any solution, except to go out and buy a non-IBM version (does your H/W
manufacturer or his dealer sell OS/2 for this machine?) and try and load 
that.
