Hello Mahen
There are problems in character encodings and filenames, which are because
of the behaviours of the given filesystems (not the OS itself).
Even NTFS has problems installing AmigaOS on a local drive, because AUX
cannot be copied on NTFS. MUI install failes because of the " " file (space
filenames are also not allowed)
Filenames which are allowed on FFS/SFS.. but not on NTFS/ext... will fail
there.
You have 2 other ways to get this files working:
1. Use a hardfile
2. Use a partition or hard disk formatted with ffs or sfs (or behaviour
compatible)
Greetings
Thore
