Ah!  But you didn't buy the new version of DiskSalv (which is due for
release soon, AFAIK), and shouldn't you have said "..there is no
support for AFS in DiskSalv".  DiskSalv (the last public release) was
out _before_ AFS, and therefore had no support for it.  I don't know
what your dealer told you, but if you read the manual it does state
that the _new_ version of DiskSalv will support it "when it is
released".

I've been using AFS on all 4 of my partitions now for 6 months, with
no problems whatsoever.  I used to get grief all the time with FFS-DC.
