ISSUE/PROBLEM

     There is a potentially SEVERE problem with the COMPSURF currently being
     shipped with the following products:

     Advanced NetWare 286 V2.0a
     SFT NetWare 286 Level I V2.0a
     COMP286.ARC (That was available on NetWire prior to December 5, 1986)

     Firmware revision E on the Disk Coprocessor has an interface problem with
     the COMPSURF program supplied in the above three products.  If this Disk
     Coprocessor is to be used with the above mentioned products, the COMPSURF
     supplied after December 8, 1986 MUST be used.  Failure to do this could
     result in DATA LOSS of adjacent disks.

     The fixed version of COMPSURF has a file creation date of December 8,
     1986 and displays a version number of "AN286 2.00G" when executed.  It
     also will have a ECO # 500-000547-001 under the part number (#
     127-000XXX-001) listed directly on the front label. This new COMPSURF
     program is available on NetWire or from your reseller.
