I tried to contact with both (Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell) for a very long time but
they seem to be not very interested. One author answered that this utility is developed only
for MS-DOS, the second also took this information into consideration but did nothing to fix problem
(at least, the last NTFSDOS which I downloaded, contained some improvements to work with W'98 but
again worked incorrectly with DR-DOS). May be, I must try to contact again? I could to try to do it,
but I think, it would be better if this letter was from Caldera or even if from another DD-DOS user?
Also I would be fully assured that this problem can occur not only on my computer. Also I'm ready
to convert one partition into NTFS and to try to exeriment with NTFSDOS on DR-DOS (at least 1-2 days)
but if someone (who knows good the DR-DOS kernel) will discuss my results while this "research" and
help to find cause. May be, the good values (parameters) of FILES, FASTOPEN, SHARE etc could help
to force NTFSDOS to work correctly on DR-DOS.
But generally, if one utility has problem with DR-DOS, that points to possibility of similar problems by using of
other system utilities. Therefore it could be very important, to find the cause of this problem.
