I have discovered that PowerQuest's DriveCopy 3.0 has a problem
handling FAT Partitions with OS/2 EAs.  It causes a fatal error which
prevents DriveCopy from doing what its name implies.

I worked with PowerQuest's Tech Support for about 2 weeks and I even
figured out what DriveCopy was doing wrong, so it ought to be fixed
by the time they release v3.01. PowerQuest's final "fix" for my
problem was to send me a copy of version 2.02.  If you need to
"upgrade" to another hard disk and your system includes any FAT
partitions (HPFS copies fine), I suggest that you either find a copy
of DriveCopy 2.02 or wait for version 3.01.  Email if you need
further information (like how to recover a copied partition after
PQDC v3.0 crashes).
