     I installed FFS on a ST251-1 using an Expansion Technologies Seagate
controller.  Files loaded and saved at blinding speeds compared to the old
system.  Unfortunately virtually every single file was corrupted causing my
Amiga to crash and program icons to take funny shapes.  

     I followed the installation instructions for the 2090 driver, which 
doesn't mention the inclusion of a MAXTRANSFER or MASK statement in the
MountList file.  Since someone had mentioned using these statements in 
conjunction with the overdrive controller, I was wondering if using 
them would solve my problem.  If so what should I set the MAXTRANSFER and
MASK statements equal [to]?
