Hi all,

I've got OS/2 and Windows currently installed on
one machine and need to install W95 with long file name
support.  I have a common drive partition that will
be used by W95 and OS/2.  I'd like to know if
any problems will exist if I use W95 long file names
on this drive.  Of course I won't be accessing W95 files
under OS/2, but will this cause any corruptions, and will
I be able to run OS/2 disk utilities against the common
drive without any problems?

BTW I won't be installing FAT32, I'll only have the base W95
with service pack 1.

TIA,
Randy
