Any hints for installing OS/2 (eComStation 1.2)?

Hello,
I'm new in this forum :) and tried to find threads relating to my problem but hadn't got any answers ...

My problem:
I installed the trial version of Parallels Workstation for Windows Version 2.2 Build 2112 on base of Windows XP and want to install eComStation 1.0, 1.1 or 1.2.
But I get the same trouble at all:
1. booting of the installation cdrom shows up the eCS in the upper left corner followed by the full eComStation boot logo
2. I tracked the loaded drivers until \ECS\BOOT\MOUSE.SYS
3. than it freezes the host system and I've to reset the hole computer

Any hints?
Shall I change parameters in the boot options menu of eComStation installation cdrom?
If yes, to what values?

Friendly regards
rexxy

Was that the solution?
I'm not sure and looking forward to the end of installation phase I ...

As I mentioned elsewhere, make sure you assign the ecs|os/2 to
the drive letter 'C:'. I wasted a lot of time trying to use the same
letter I used on my PC.
