Partition Magic 7.0 does not support HPFS

2001-09-25 15:09:19 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [VOICENWS, Chris Ayers]

Chris Ayers received an upgrade for Partition Magic. Documentation doesn't mention HPFS files system.

On Page 21 of the User's Guide it lists the following supported file systems:

• Extended

• FAT
• FAT16x
• FAT32
• FAT32x
• Linux Ext2
• Linux Swap
• NTFS
• Unformatted
• Unallocated Space

There is nothing in the manual covering HPFS. OS/2 is briefly mentioned under FAT16, but the program must be run from the Rescue Disks created under some version of Windows.

Mozilla fix

2001-09-25 15:03:46 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [VOICENWS, Ralph Cohen]

Apparently SSL and a couple other things were inadvertently left out of the new Mozilla 0.9.4 build, so a newer drop has been posted at ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/releases/mozilla0.9.4/mozilla-i386-pcos2-vacpp-0.9.4.zip.

Mike Kaply also announced that the daily update process for the OS/2 VAC++ build has been automated, so two new builds of 0.9.4 will be posted every day with the latest one available at ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/mozilla-os2.zip .

New builds are created at 8am and 4pm. Earlier builds are also archived on the server.

Be aware that these are built differently than the regularly releases. These builds don't create their own \bin directory, so you need to create one first and then unzip it (with directories) from that directory.
