I have to agree.
Every time I don't exit my system nicely, i.e. a hard crash,
Stacker will update the FAT the next time I boot up.  It makes
sense that an act of hard-drivicus interruptus would somehow mess
things up.

When it happens more than once in a while, however, I get worried.  It's a
good idea to do a CHKDSK /f and an SCHECK, just to be safe.

I've had no Stacker-related hard drive problems over the last two
years, given a little caution.

Just my $.02.
Ken
