The only thing you *might* be able to run os/2 under besides itself, is
vmware, or *possibly* bochs.
vmware is not free, though they do let linux users download a personal
use copy for free, and bochs is ...not trivialy simple to set up.
You can get something that looks like os2 by running windows3.1 either
in dosemu, or in wine, and installing wpsfwin on top of it (warp shell
for windows, makes win 3.1 look like warp). I have done this. The way
wpsfwin replaces the program manager, and places icons right on the
desktop, when you run it in wine, you get mixed both X and Windows icons
right on your X desktop.
Pretty neat but there must be a reason I took it all apart after a short
while...*shrug* probably just because the only reason I set it up in the
first place was to see if I could. Once I got it, I had no further use
for it :)
