Narrative:

After departing hrl en route to dfw, we had an oil low pressure warning on the #2 engine. We were performing the checklist for this when the engine failed. The flight attendant called us and reported smoke in the cabin. The captain immediately turned the #2 bleeds off. We declared an emergency and diverted to crp. The flight attendant reported that the smoke had stopped. We completed the engine-out checklist (which included bleeds off). The captain selected crp's most into-the-wind runway, which was runway 13. We performed a visual approach backed up by the ILS. Even though we used the most suitable runway, we had significant directional problems on landing. The plane swerved hard to the left a couple of times. The captain brought it back to the centerline and stopped it with the emergency brake. We shut down on the runway so that the landing gear could be inspected for damage. No damage was found, so we started back up and taxied to the gate.
