I'm having some trouble installing OS/2 EE 1.3.  When I try to boot
up the installation disk,  it comes up with a message at the top
of the screen about copyrights and stuff.  Then it clears the
screen and at the bottom gives me message saying that my country.sys
file is incorrect.  I'm supposed to fix the problem and then reboot.

The problem is that I don't know how to fix it.  I tried taking out
the codepage line in the config.sys.  Also, I tried adding a country
line.  Both cases came up with slightly different messages, but they
both complained about the country.sys file. (the differences was
between A:\COUNTRY.SYS and \COUNTRY.SYS)  My country.sys file is
24466 bytes long.  Has anyone else had this problem?
