I was told that installing pvm on an NT workstation required the use of
an
NTFS partition.  Is this still a requirement for installing pvm on NT?
Can this
requirement be changed by recompiling pvm executables?

Unfortunately, our corporate standard requires the use of only the old
dos-format
partitions on our NT workstations (as foolish as this may seem).  I
would like
to try pvm on our NT workstations, but the NTFS requirement appears to
doom
my efforts.
