Incidentally, I just did the same. I've been a conman lover from the beginning,
and just installed the AShell. I also have Mymenu instaled, which I find
extremely useful, but now here's the catch. One more program that I like, LS,
(Ala Justin V. McCormick) has started to crash my system. If I open an AShell
from Mymenu and execute ls as the first command (My default drive, SYS: is DH0: a 40M Conner on ICD controller) I get the good old Disk Corrupt requestor.
GOMF will let me whap the requestor and shell, but none of my drives will
respond, workbench doesn't update etc...
If on the other hand, I start an AShell from a CLI (opened via workbench, or
opened from an AShell (opened via mymenu) then LS works fine. My only 
remaining suspect is that I'm forcing the size of the AShell with con:.
But a quick experiment (TGFM (That's MULTITASKING, not MONDAYS)) seems to 
feel that that's not the problem.
	Any suggestions welcomed.
