Just found a problem related with PARTFILT that some 
of you might have encountered.

If partfilt is used the /P 1B (= hidden FAT32 
partition) this will not work. Partfilt will 
virtualize the partition, but will still show it as 
a FAT32 partition while infact it should have been a 
IFS partition.

The quick fix is to always specify both partition 
types: the hidden AND the normal (e.g. /P 1B,0B)

This will be fixed in the next release (0.83) at
http://www.os2ss.com/information/kelder/


Also this version will no longer use a separate 
translate table for international characters, but 
will use the native NLS support from OS/2 to load a 
OS/2 codepage to UNICODE translate table on system 
startup.
