It is also worth noting that, if you simply replace HPFS386 with HPFS, you
may "lose" part of your directory tree.  I imagine this has to do with the
limit to the number of EAs in HPFS (I forget what it is) that is removed with
HPFS386.  Anyway, a coworker did this, and suddenly, a whole directory
disappeared.  It came back when he reloaded HPFS386.  He needed to do a
complete backup, reformat, and restore to use HPFS.  This was, btw, HPFS386
from Lanman 2.0 and HPFS from OS2 1.3 SE.
