OS/2 1.0
---
Exciting news for OS/2 fans: PCjs (v1.16.1) is now able to run OS/2 1.0 on IBM PC AT (80286) machine configurations.
Exciting news for OS/2 fans: PCjs (v1.16.1) is now able to run OS/2 1.0 on
[IBM PC AT Machine Configurations](/devices/pc/machine/#model-5170-machine-configurations). This is the culmination
of recent work in PCjs to fully emulate the Intel 80286 processor and 16-bit protected-mode, including undocumented
features like [LOADALL](/pubs/pc/reference/intel/80286/loadall/) and triple-fault resets.
To test it out, go to [IBM PC Machine Configurations](/devices/pc/machine/), scroll down to the Model 5170 machines,
and choose one. For drive A:, select "OS/2 1.0 Debugger Boot Disk", click "Download", and then click the "Run"
button.
In a few seconds, you'll see a very rudimentary OS/2 shell (a slimmed-down version of the OS/2 Program Selector)
that allows you to start the protected-mode command interpreter ("Start a Program") or the real-mode command
interpreter ("command.com").
For a quick demo, try the "[OS/2 1.0 Debugger Boot Disk](/disks/pc/os2/misc/1.0/debugger/)". In a few seconds,
you'll see a very rudimentary OS/2 shell (a slimmed-down version of the OS/2 Program Selector) that allows you to
start the protected-mode command interpreter ("Start a Program") or the real-mode command interpreter ("command.com").
