What I've done on one eCS/W2k machine (and plan to do on another) is to
use FAT32 for all the win partitions, and HPFS for the eCS boot (and the
partitions I only need from eCS).  The os2 fat32 driver seems to be pretty
solid (altho there may be some issues with ea s).

  With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
  necessarily  a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are
  going to land, and it could  be dangerous sitting under them as
  they fly overhead.  -Request for Comments: 1925 IOOF
