Just a note. at the 2nd and 3rd COLOROS2 (1994,1995) (OS2 Develop Conferences) 
the IBM HPFS developer (Doug Azzarito) had sessions with informations on HPFS
low level layouts. (e.g. about the superblock etc).

Maybe you find the conference proceedings (printed sessions) somewhere on the
net?

Conference Manager was Wayne Kovsky.

heres what i have (but i havent verified if the data is still correct).

http://www.softwaresummit.com  # ColoradoSoftwareSummit (exColoradOS2)

i just have an old CompuServe id from Wayne:

 Wayne Kovsky 76711,1221 

maybe you can reach him via CIS or at 76711.1221@compuserve.com



Servus, Mario!
