'Huey Tenochtitlan' : «Великий город Теночтитлан» : 'La Gran Tenochtitlan' : 'The Great City of Tenochtitlan' (1945) mural art from the creativity of the 'Mexican' tlacuiloani, i.e., 'painter', Diego Rivera, asymptotic as it may be, yet based on historical narrative(s), we can deduce the ethnic Mexicah peoples -- as opposed to heterogeneity of ethnicities now autodenominating themselves as 'Mexicans' and occupying the Spanish scum lebensraum, renamed as 'Mexico' in 1821 just to provide the entrenched alien Iberian 'Catholic' fanatics, racists, criminals, land thieves, with a fig leaf of legitimacy -- did not fit the narcissist West's image nor their provincial, stunted, worldview.

On the scene of our topic on Rivera's mural art (subsequently zoomed-in below for our topic), we can see the cihuatl, i.e., dame or woman, who is selling cihuametzin, nohpalli, ihuan nochtli -- Nahuatl words corrupted into alien European, vulgar Latin -derived Anglo- / Spanish dialects, as 'agave leaves' or 'pencas de maguey', 'cactus leaves' or 'nopales', and 'prickly pear fruit' or 'tunas' -- with her chichihualoa (breasts) quite casually exposed; whereas the chiuatl on the right wears a cotomitl or huipilli, a form of long blouse or tunic, as both tlanamacac (sellers) at the tianquizco -- open air market, spot or place, held periodically at Mexico-Tenochtitlan A∙tepetl -- engage potential customers.

No one at the tianquizco raises a fuss about spurious 'moral values' that subsequent Iberian/Italo/Gallo/Anglo- terrorists European Christian fanatic invaders and their spawn now occupying Ixachitlan, i.e., 'Land Mass Immensity', as the Mexicah knew this continent -- have imposed their alien, racist (i.e., D̶o̶n̶a̶l̶d̶ Adolf Trump and his fascist regime disparage as 'illegals' the destitute victims of US imperialism which implementation is elaborated in the US Anglo- Nazis' so-called 'Monroe Doctrine', formulated in 1823 and in effect since then); even their hypocrite 'Supreme Court' rules in favour of fascist, dehumanizing, prejudices against survivors of their mass (still) ongoing genocide¹ on this continent, which began in 1492 with the invasion by the Islamic...er, Iberian State (IS) terrorists.

Looking at the mural, the scene on the right, lower corner, suggests a Nahuatl agglutinated word:

And even then we can barely apprehend the Ahuiani concept, as embodied by the central figure in the section of Rivera's conception of a typical Mexicah scene, as it has been reduced primarily to bastardized concepts engendered by the hardwired Iberian scum Catholic -tainted extremists mysoginist psychos, like Alonso de Molina, who 'translated' the concept ahuiani as: шлюхa или плохая женщина : whоre or bad woman : putа o mala mujer². All sorts of alien dialects disparaging vulgarities have been employed to describe the Ahuiani concept -- as if the alien Europeans weren't tainted with their uniform provinciality of Christian fanaticism and had, in a moment of epiphany, became aware of the irreducibility of just one of the ancient civilizations they have destroyed!

And to my mind came a phrase by Ангелина Кузнецова : Angelina Kuznetsova which I can cite and/or paraphrase:

«Выход за рамки приличия ещё не делает вас плохим ч̶е̶л̶о̶в̶е̶к̶о̶м̶ женщиной……
    Так же, как и посещение церкви не делает вас х̶о̶р̶о̶ш̶и̶м̶ святым.»
'Going beyond the bounds of decency does not make you a bad p̶e̶r̶s̶o̶n̶ woman……
    Just like going to church doesn't make you g̶o̶o̶d̶ a saint.'
'El ir mas allá de los limites de la decencia no te hace ser una mala p̶e̶r̶s̶o̶n̶a̶ mujer……
    De igual manera que el ir a la iglesia no te hace ser b̶u̶e̶n̶a̶ santa.'

Of course, if Ангелина could be transported -- somehow -- via a time machine, or the like, into the scene the tlacuiloani Diego Rivera only very imperfectly apprehended and/or conveyed via his mural...yet, 'Strange Things Stayed on My Mind'...

(WARNING, the instance of an archetype of a beautiful female body visual art performance requires the user to be old enough -- and male enough in the fascist West, i.e., unperturbed by the Russophobe Zionist Jew Soro's agenda -- and thus be able to appreciate one of the multiple roles a Mexicah Ahuiani allegedly performed, as embodied by Ангелина Кузнецова : Angelina Kuznetsova:

Ok, So What is So Special About Your 'Half OS'?

I often used to read the paraphrased referenced question being asked in forums about those who revealed were using OS/2. That is why it reminded me of the multiple roles of the Ahuiani in a highly complex society which narcissist outsiders with a penchant for reductionism -- and overflowing with arrogance -- often misunderstood and continue to misunderstand. For instance, there was another class of Ahuiani∙me (plural), represented by the deity Xochiquetzal dressed in Mexicah warriors' military fatigues, and referred to as Maqui:

These Ahuianime or maqui catered to the Mexicah warriors -- including engaging in battle, and even dying, alongside them. Accordingly, we could advance the argument that cihua∙me (plural for женщины : women : mujeres) of the 'Mexican Revolution' of 1910, predominantly of ethnicity and psychology closer to the now oppressed natives whose land was stolen by the alien Spanish scum for their 'New Spain' lebensraum, and who were referred to as 'soldaderas', i.e., 'soldiers' companions' (roughly), carried on -- consciously or not -- another aspect of the original Mexicah's Ahuianime concept: maqui

Alright enough of that...

Accordingly, instead of elaborating on OS/2's initial cutting edge usable features, like stability, multitasking, and an object oriented desktop, I will go over an installation overview of a Bootable OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 -- hack that I created -- which includes Multimedia, HPFS386 file system, and finally, the TCP/IP stack.

Many moons ago, I placed a maximum bid of $600.00 on an OS/2 for SMP (supporting up to eight processors) v2.11 which auction term ended at a time when I would not be available to monitor. In subsequent hours, to my dismay, mine had not been the winning bid. I already had, and was using, OS/2 Warp 3 and 4, aka 'Merlin', as well as WSeB, i.e., OS/2 Warp Server for eBusiness, including the Symmetrical Multiprocessor versions. However, there was something alluring in that particular OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 that I was missing. And it was not until I found a CD media set from a company that has since then disappeared, swallowed by a bigger fish, in the Silicon Valley pond. Fascinating, to say the least, one of the CD media had the OS/2 that I had been on a quest for a long time. The included OS/2 was for ome(2) and chiucueyi(8) processors and had a 'fixpak' in a second CD media.

Accordingly, it was enough for a first try at installation into my now gone two(2) CPU entry level American Megatrends server. And yes, after replacing a few components in the couple of installation diskettes that were available in certain official repositories, I installed OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 in a dual processor bare metal machine. The server had a supported video card and thus I was able to utilize a greater than 600x480 video resolution. Yet...

The diffences between the single-processor OS/2 and the SMP version are very small: 2 APIs for controlling the CPUs, an extra index for DosQuerySysInfo() and 4 APIs for dealing with spinlocks. I know that the "SMP addendum" mentions a lot of other things, but they are server things, not SMP things.


"OS/2 2.11 SMP" supports up to 16 processors...

³
thus began to experiment in VirtualBox by gradually incrementing virtual CPUs. It was a time consuming process because I had to reinstall from the diskette media while altering certain variables, i.e., proceeding by inductive reasoning. I shelved the experimentation for a while but then I was drawn to the question of whether it would be possible to create a bootable OS/2 2.11. It was not out there, that I was aware. That project took me a while to resolve and in the process I even created an bootable OS/2 2.0 which fonts in the command shell were awful out-of-the-box and I had to improve it by applying first a fixpak and only then I was satisfied with the outcome fonts at the command line.

Having succeeded in creating a bootable OS/2 2.xy then, like a Tlapetlanillotl, i.e., «удар молнии», 'bolt of lightning', 'rayo de luz', the question again suggested itself, is a bootable OS/2 for SMP v2.11 possible? Achieving that could save me some time! I had never seen the OS/2 v2.xy on chiucueyi(8) processors, much less on caxtolli_omce(16) processors thus, the experiments had to continue!

Drastically Altering the Ome(2)-floppy Boot Procedure to Accommodate HPFS386 File System Support

If you are running your OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 server hacked with HPFS386 file system online and, for whatever reason, you need to perform maintenance operations, your hosting provider likely will not be available just to insert floppies for you. Accordingly, it was better to leave the virtual bootable OS/2 for SMP v2.11 CDROM media attached when exporting the virtual machine image (VM) and, subsequently, detach it utilizing the virtual tool(s) provided by VirtualBox, for instance. Of course, the VM image manipulation tools are also available with other virtualization solutions, like Red Hat's Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM), if IBM would care to enable the OS/2 to boot from such.

Assuming a pristine virtual hard disk slice was created under VirtualBox, this time I will be locally installing and running the OS/2 for SMP v2.11 in a computing unit with caxtolli_omce(16) cores, i.e., China⁴ -manufactured AceMagic AX16 Pro Ryzen 7, where I a priori installed Metztli Reiser4 / Debian 12, aka Amatlocuilin or Bookworm, and built from source the current VirtualBox release:

First Phase of OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 Installation

OS/2 for SMP v2.11 bootable CDROM utilizes CD2BOOT - CD BOOT/2 V1.20; thus we press the Spacebar... to continue booting from the removable media.

Under the OS/2 colorful rings logo gradually splashing the screen, the Operating System/2 Version 2.1 -- and other IBM notices -- briefly appear which are subsequently replaced by the message Loading, please wait...

Once at the OS/2 command shell, we may want to display the contents at our current directory in alphabetical order and to pause the screen until we press the Spacebar to scroll down.

Shell

Then, after familiarizing -- out of curiosity, of course -- with the content in our dual-floppy image, we proceed to go to the OS/2 installer screen(s):

Shell

Installer greeting: Welcome to OS/2 (please note, very first instance)

Note to Current Users of OS/2 2.0

Introduction: Choices : Up/Down Arrows : Esc=Cancel : F1=Help : Enter, general instructions to proceed with OS/2 installation.

Preparing the Hard Disk... is a two-step process:

2. Specify your own installation partition: FDISK

Install OS/2 Boot Manager: Create at Start of FreeSpace or End of FreeSpace

Create partition from the hilited FreeSpace

Enter the Size in MegaBytes: defaults to whole disk size.

Primary Partition or Extended Logical Drive

Location of Partition: Create at Start or End of FreeSpace

And so on, successively creating Logical partitions -- remember, OS/2 2.xy does not support Logical Volume Manager (LVM) -- until I create the H: partition which symbolically represents HPFS386 file system to be created. Accordingly, from the drop down menu, I select option: Set installable:

Assign it a New Name for installable partition: OS/2 SMP

F3=Save and Exit FDISK

Then the OS/2 installer displays the message:

The hard disk partitioning is complete. The System must
be restarted so that the partitions can be recognized
during system installation.

Remove the diskette from drive A .

Insert the Installation Diskette in drive A .

Press the Enter key.

Of course, there is no Diskette in drive A as drive A is being emulated by CD2BOOT. Thus, in VirtualBox I press Ctrl and Delete to reboot the system.

Second Phase of OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 Installation

Well, we repeat the same procedure as above, except that when we type the command ome(2) reprinted below for reference:

Shell

the Welcome to OS/2 greeting will not be displayed; instead, the OS/2 Installer's Installation Drive Selection informs us that OS/2 will be installed on drive H . Accordingly, from the ensuing options I accept the already hilited entry 1. Accept the drive

From the OS/2 Installer's Select the File System ensuing options I accept the already hilited entry 1. High Performance File System (please, note this is not the HPFS386 file system, yet :

Upon pressing Enter, or H (hilited option letter), Installing Operating System/2 header notice is displayed, as well as Please wait while the installation partition is formatted...

Immediately after the virtual hard disk installation slice is formatted, the OS/2 PACKed system files are unPACKed to the freshly HPFS -formatted partition slice. Snapshot below shows the OS/2 Installer operating on our chingon, i.e., badass, OS/2 2.11 kernel for SMP supporting up to caxtolli_omce(16) processors/cores.

After the first half of the OS/2 installation is complete, the Installer will now display the greeting: Welcome to OS/2 (please note, this is the second instance ); therefore, do not Press Enter to continue,

instead, press Esc to cancel. We will be taken behind the OS/2 Installer's screen, at the CMD shell performing the installation routine. More specifically Operating System/2 Command Interpreter Version 2.1, at location
[CDROM drive letter:\OS2\DISK_1]

We can view a list of files the Installer has unPACKed at relevant directory locations -- out of curiosity, of course; for instance, we can view the OS/2 Platform Specific Driver (PSD), which provides an abstraction layer for the underlying virtualized hardware.

Shell

To analyze OS/2's intermediate CONFIG.SYS at drive H:, we can invoke the Tiny EDITor (TEDIT) located in our ome(2) -floppy diskette image integrated into our bootable CDROM media and whole assembly emulated as drive A: as

Shell

And the matlactic, i.e., 'blue', -background editor is displayed, ready for command; press Esc to toggle cursor location.

The prior exercises, of course, are for informational purposes. However, the principal reason for invoking the Operating System/2 Command Interpreter Version 2.1 is to type essential custom installation command:

Shell

No errors should occur. We are done with this task

As in previous occasion, in VirtualBox I press the Host key (in my case, right Ctrl) and Delete to reboot the system.

Third Phase of OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 Installation

Given the fact that a partial installation was already written onto the virtual hard disk slice by the OS/2 Installer routine, we do not need to press the Spacebar to boot from the bootable CDROM this time. Instead we allow the CD2Boot utility count mechanism to gradually decrease to ahtleh, i.e., 'zero', so that the OS/2 Installer routine will start from the virtual hard disk sice which, of course, will be the OS/2 Boot Manager. The OS/2 SMP entry is already hilited -- as it is the only bootable system added to the OS/2 Boot Manager:

Pressing Enter or allowing the counter to gradually decrease to reach ahtleh, will begin to load the OS/2 Installer behind the OS/2 rings splash screen:

At the OS/2 Setup and Installation dialog we check the radio button Install all features (28M; press Ok button.

On the ensuing System Configuration screen, we leave the defaults and press Ok button.

Upon that event completion, Select Printer(s) dialog will pop up. Unless we have a printer supported by any of the drivers listed, we might leave default hilited entry Do Not Install Default Printer:; press Ok button.

OS/2 Installer routine then goes back to System Configuration dialog where we, again, press Ok button.

At this point a smaller OS/2 Setup and Installation rectangular dialog ensues informing us You are about to begin the installation of your selected configuration. Press Ok button.

A gradually progressing black bar adorned with OS/2 rings is displayed by the OS/2 Installer as it is Transfering files to your hard disk.

I uncheck box Migrate Applications (lest Adolf Trump's regime criminalizes them, as well) on the ensuing Advanced Options dialog as there was no previous operating system -- only leaving default check box Configure Win-OS/2 Desktop. Press Ok button.

Install standard Win-OS/2 desktop dialog radio button is selected by default; press Ok button to continue:

The Advanced Options dialog reappears and, unless we have an Install Device Support Diskette containing OS/2 2.11 third-party drivers, we press Ok button to continue:

OS/2 Installer proceeds to install the IBM OS/2 null print driver as well as relevant Win-OS/2 drivers...

and installs the IBM OS/2 display drivers and relevant Win-OS/2 drivers, too:

And this completes our bootable OS/2 for SMP v2.11 CDROM/ISO media graphical installation overview!

When the dialog prompts us to Remove the diskette from drive A, we need to remove the virtual CDROM -- which CD2BOOT has emulated as a diskette or floppy and which our legendary OS/2 thinks is drive A ; otherwise, pressing Ok button to continue will have no effect in rebooting our newly installed Operating System/2.

OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 Very First Boot

After booting OS/2 for the first time, a tutorial will offer guidance. Take it if you are new to OS/2 v2.11. Otherwise, after exploring the object oriented Desktop, you will realize the CDROM object is missing. Additionally, although the running OS2KRNL is Symmetrical Multiprocessing (SMP) -aware, OS/2 is running on only one CPU/CORE, as it has just been installed and this is its first boot. Thus, we must enable the CDROM device and enable the SMP feature typing at a command prompt:

Shell

The procedure should complete with no errors. Now we can type at our command prompt:

Shell

We make sure to select the VirtualBox radio button Power off the machine.

From the VirtuaBox control dashboard list, we select System, then the Processor tab, and increase the CPU/CORE count to caxtolli_omce(16) and select/'press' the Ok button.

After we restart OS/2 for SMP v2.11 we can see Processors Initialized: 16

HPFS386 is a ring 0 driver (allowing direct hardware access and direct interaction with the kernel) with built-in SMB networking properties that are usable by various server daemons, whereas HPFS is a ring 3 driver. Thus, HPFS386 is faster than HPFS and highly optimized for server applications. It is also highly tunable by experienced administrators.

If your are curious to know, please see the video for the installation of multimedia and TCP/IP stack; but here is a relevant peek: HPFS386 is installed with the command:

Shell

(Once the video player has started, right selecting (or 'clicking') your device (or 'mouse') will show menu option, 'Open video in new tab', which will enable larger screen size.)

The US Supreme Court has authorized the White House to deport immigrants to third countries, including conflict-stricken South Sudan and Libya, regardless of where the individuals are originally from.

At the same time, Europe's ugly, dark, genocidal history repeats itself. In a parallel development in the so-called Middle East, terrorists, psychopathic 'Вible' fanatics Zionist evil Jews are mercilessly, under their typical 'Holohoax' victim-role-playing hasbara regurgitated ad nauseam by the West's mainstream media and political whores, annihilating the most vulnerable humans in Gaza, the women and little kids, boys and girls who, if surviving, will be left physically and psychologically scarred, handicapped, for the rest of their lives.

The vivid embodiment of Hitler, the Zionist Jew monster, Netanyahu, and his fascist evil regime's systematic destruction of Gaza hospitals, extreme water rationing, the offering of a meager rationing of food as bait to attract hunger-striken Palestinians and then to shoot and bоmb at them indiscriminately as they approach, introduction of starvation as a weapon to induce malnutrition in the affected generation(s) and subsequent diseases which result due to immune system collapse, is a de facto ethnic cleansing operation not unlike what the US Anglo- Nazis 'founding fathers' did to the Anishinaabeg, i.e., 'Native Americans', to steal their land for the lebensraum they now call 'America':

'Sorry. You are living on stolen land' ~ Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine.

AND THE WINNER, AS USUAL, IS CHINA

The collective West sanction tsunami against Russia handed over to Chinese manufacturers a market of 150 million people on a plate.

Now, the Talmudic terror pager op in Lebanon has given Chinese manufacturers maximum priority across a market of nearly TWO BILLION Muslims.

With enemies like these, China does not even need friends.
