My OS/2 installations have always only ever had their primary system partition
on
logical F:, even before LVM, when D: was a FAT primary on 2nd disk, E: was FAT
logical on first disk, and OS/2 system partition on 2nd logical on first disk.
I've never booted OS/2 from anything other than IBM or eCS Boot Manager. In
cases
where I install OS/2 more than once on a PC, it was with MCP or newer and used
LVM
to make the extra system partition use V:. Even now OS/2 (as eCS) is running,
because I use Quattro Pro for DOS on it as a Swiss Army Knife for data and
numbers. BM here chainloads Grub to run Linux. Other than a short experiment
with
rEFInd, I've only ever used BM and/or Grub for multibooting.
