Hi Mike,

 MP> How do I copy (or install) the BOOT MANAGER partition from the old drive
 MP> to the new drive?  

You don't. You have to use OS/2 Fdisk (or FiskPM) to create the Bootmanager 
partition.

Is it as simple as marking a partition on the new drive
 MP> as BOOT MANAGER in FDISK?

Almost... you cannot set an existing partition to be BM, you must create the 
partition as BM from scratch. You get no choice, it allocates 1 entire CYLINDER 
by default, however it only really uses about 1 sector of the disk.

Cheers...........pk.
