I read some of the HyperDisk documentation; it made me nervous.  Does
anyone have this running smoothly in EMS on a 386 with QEMM and a large IDE
drive?  It's the IDE part which worries me a bit.

I don't usually get nervous easily, but the part about "don't install
without a full backup no matter how standard your system is" worried me.  I
don't presently have the resources for a full backup.
