This is fine. The JFS and HPFS chkdsks work the same. You can use call
chkdsk as you used to do with your large HPFS partitions, but it's really
not needed with JFS.

FWIW, a chkdsk of a dirty JFS volume would take on the order of a minute,
assuming the volume is not badly damanged.

This should not occur. As I recommended, you should install eCSMT and let
it install the UDF updates. If that does not fix it, it's time to hit the
eCS hardware newsgroup.

Humm. What's the directory stucture of the diskette?

You can always copy the drivers to \IBMCOM\MACS. That's all the install
from diskette option does in either MTPS or NICPAK. You only need to copy
the .OS2 and the .NIF file, except in the rare instances that the driver
set includes an .EXE. Look in the file section of the NIF for the file
list.
