3. High Performance FileSystem (HPFS)

3.1 Accessing HPFS from DOS (iHPFS)

iHPFS makes possible for OS/2 users to use their HPFS partitions when they boot plain DOS. The HPFS partition is assigned a drive letter, and can be accessed like any DOS drive.iHPFS is restricted to read-only access.

This program is no longer being developed, because author doesn't use OS/2. If you are willing to maintain the program, let him know.
