Hello,

Is it possibile to format and use an SD card with FFS or PFS?
I have an 8 GB SD with 3 partitions formatted with these filesystem but it's not recognized by any Operative system i have on Apollo omniboot, i have to transfer some files from another amiga that has gotec so no floppy drive.

You know what would be cool? To format it using OFS heheh. For fun, can you try?

Yes it is possible.
SD0 is mounted using a mountlist.
Depending on what OS you are using the mountlist my be in various locations.
The mountlist will be called SD0 and the tooltypes are defined in SD0.info.
Change the filesystem handler in the mountlist.
Usually filesystem handlers are stored in the L: folder.
NOTE: This will only work if the filesystem driver is in the L: directory.

I hope this info has been useful...
