BG>> Same here.  If the auto chkdsk finds problems here, it has always been 

BG>> able to fix them on its own, and I've lost nothing either.  Not once.



RB>> OK, let me have a go. 



 BG> You'd be joking, wouldn't you?



well, yes.



RB>> I seem to have a reputation for trashing partitions, drives and 

RB>> motherboards. I'll see what I can do  & report back later.



 BG> Can't for the life of me imagine why that might be, Russ.



I'm a tryer.



RB>> How much time have I got;-)



 BG> Oh, about 3 seconds to live, if you ever touch MY computer.  :)



You have win95, leave the dialup networking server enabled for 30

minutes tonight at midnight. Please

aand ohh! leave your computer and modem turned on.



db>>> Apart from the inconvenience of not being able to easily
access 'em from

db>>> DOS boot floppies, I'm now pretty damn comfortable with the
HPFS file 

db>>> system.



RB>> Can't an OS/2 boot floppy be made to just access a HPFS drive at

RB>> Command prompt level (instead of the GUI level)



 BG> Absolutely, as long as you load the HPFS.IFS file system from it.



Can't wait to get my motherboards delivered, I have so much to learn

with OS/2

> I have this German ute called HPFS4DOS, and when run from the DOS CLI

BG>> (there's a Windows version too, but I've never tried it), it allows FULL 

BG>> read and write access to ALL HPFS drives and partitions.



RB>> Yes, Please



 BG> File-attached via David's.  At least I know you'll get it there.  :)



Got it, Thankyou.



db>>> As Doug said - in rare cases (hasn't bit me yet, but I'm in
no rush to 

db>>> experience, either!).



RB>> I'll do it for you.



 BG> Look out, David.  Better check your stocks of garlic and crucifixes!



I do eat garlic.... never tried one of your crucifixes though.
