There were some problems in the early release that should be fixed by the 
FixPacks, currently at XR_M005.  However, those problems should not result in 
data corruption of the kind being reported by LA.  What are you seeing?
Because of its speed, HPFS386 has been known to push certain drives 
(especially Quantum) to the wall.  These kinds of failures should be outright 
crashes and hangs, not data corruption.
