Hi,

installing is possible, but booting from pcmcia is impossible since 
-as I know - common SCSI-CARDS do not have a BIOS.

The only way I know is to have a small portion of OS/2 on the internal 
harddisk (i.e. kernel, devicedriver ...) which starts pcmcia, the other 
stuff could be on SCSI.

(I use a Adaptec SLIMSCSI 1460 card)
