I installed 2.1b on an HPFS partition, with OS/2 2.0+GA on a separate FAT
partition and DOS+Windows on my primary partition.  I just did this last night
and haven't had to use it too much, but it seems to work fine.  One thing I did
though was change the SWAPPATH= in the config.sys on the 2.0 partion to use the    
same path as my 2.1b partition.  Haven't tried it yet, but we'll see how it
works.
