[Discussion] Does "pinball.sys" Work?

[Thomas Clayton]

Dear POSSI:

Recently downloaded (DLed) many OS2 / eCS related files to NTFS (Win: 2k, XP) HDD volume. I saw among the things I could - and DID - DL: pinball.sys and related files to ENABLe seeing / writing to HPFS volumes from "NT" type OSes.

Has anyone tried using these with an NT OS to access a HPFS drive?


I'm thinking of
 putting a 256MB or 2.1 GB IDE drive that it ALREADY HPFS formatted onto the NT system via an external USB cable _OR_ directly onto its IDE cable
 (while it is off  ;-)  ),
copying these DLed files to its HPFS volume,
then detaching it (while the system is off :-) if it was on the IDE cable),
and, then,
re-attaching (I guess I should have the Warp system off, too ;-D  )
.

You KNOW ... I PROBABLY could JUST use a DOS formatted drive, couldn't I?

Still, I'd like to know the answer to that question.
