Also, do you just use suspend mode, or are you going into hibernation (Which I never use).... I have just been booting up only once a day, and turning off at night. > > Someone posted a Stacker-like program for OS/2 which took advantage of > > 32bit performance....I looked and wound up installing Zipstream, which > > can't be correct.

I told it to mirror my D: (OS/2 HPFS) drive with H:, like in the instructions. But it seems to indicate you have to tell it what files to compress, like simlply zipping them. What I did was type ZSPACK D:\software\FLG, which is my Lotus Freelane directory. After that, I was under the impression the files would program like normal, but they didn't. Did I do something wrong? Also, John, I think I may have come off as an OS/2 basher, or perhaps that's the way you interprted me, but I am not....I really like the product, and was VERY impressed with the way it identified and cooperated with my hardware. I'm not going back to DOS/WIN, just looking forward to moving ahead with OS/2. I use a Colorado Trakker 250, and have not tried to back up since the install. Anyone else using such a device with OS/2 on a thinkpad USING the HPFS? I may need new software..... > _____________________________________________________________________ > |\_____________________________________________________________________\ > | | | > | | John H.
