No lost files, not corrupted files. I've got a 200 meg drive with a 1 non-stacked drive and five 25 meg stacked volumes (which ends up being about 50 megs after stacker). The partitioning was kind of stupid, but I didn't partition it (partitioned by a relative who set the system up for me) and it works, so I leave it alone. The only problem I can whine about is there are a couple of apps that don't want to work with a memory manager and when that's the case I usually have to disable stacker to leave enough low memory free to run those apps (as well as load the app on my non-stacked partition). My .02 worth, Chris
