Henk Kelder has released beta 0.64 of his FAT32.IFS, which allows FAT32
partitions to be accessed from OS/2. (FAT32 is Microsoft's new
filesystem for Win95 OSR 2.x and above)

This beta is available from:

        http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/hkelder/#FAT32

Changes in version 0.64:

 o  Corrected a problem in CHKDSK where checking very large files
always gave
errors

 o  Fat32.IFS now reports fake values whenever a DOS session queries
disk space and the disksize is larger than 2 Gb. The reported cluster
size will be reported higher than really is the case so a maximum of 2
Gb disk or free space can be reported. The maximum cluster size
reported is 32 Kb with a maximum of 65535 clusters (total and free)

 o  Encountered and fixed a trap that occurred whenever a explicit call
to FS_FLUSH was done and there were dirty sectors in the cache

 o  Modified FS_CHGFILEPTR to behave correctly (conform OS/2
specifications) and put in logic to prohibit that files exceed 2Gb

 o  Changed various other things. Please read FAT32.TXT enclosed in the
archive.
