The IBM Restore CD should work. You just need the appropriate video card. So OS2 Warp will work.
You need this video card:
S3 Vision864 PCI video card

I have IBM PC 330 too, version 6577 - pentium 166 mhz, loaded with a rare 32mb sdram at 5 volts.
I found this Ready To Configure CD IBM PC 330 350, but didnt had time to test it:

While people have done it before, Advise against running the mmx at 3.3v or above.
Can it work? Yes.. can it work for a long time maybe. Should you no, there is no reason.
Interposers are cheap now.

Can I get more info on this? The rj45 isn’t ethernet?
Token ring is totally different platvorm even though RJ45 connectors are physically compatible.
Many 3Dfx and Pentium III-S stuff.

Gotcha. I had thought that the other ports were for tolken ring and that the rj45 was ethernet. Which has me wondering if some cards that I have that I thought were ethernet capable are in fact tolken ring. Is there a easy way to tell? I haven’t tried to use them yet 🤣.
I noticed that I have two slots available for what I believe to allow add more memory to the S3 onboard GPU wich currently has 1Mb.
I suppose it can receive two 512kB chips right?
Anyone knows the correct reference of those chips and where can I find them for sale?

I have an IBM PC 330 6577 and I maxed out the onboard video ram with these parts from chinese market:

These chips worked on other standalone videocards I have: Cirrus Logic, Alicat, S3 trio...
They dont improve speed, just increase the maximum resolution we can use in windows 95.
