People don't seem to understand this. This is the beauty of
GS/OS. Almost everything is device and file system
independent. DOS 3.3 and maybe Pascal are exceptions,
but the idea is that any file system can exist on any media.
FST's call drivers (I think indirectly. via GS/OS's DRead and DWrite?), but they don't communicate in any special way.
Thus, 3rd party drivers will work fine with whatever
FST's Apple writes.
Another area I'm unsure of is hard drive partitioning.
