If GS/OS will read/write an HFS volume, is there any reason that I couldn't have one ProDOS boot partition and the rest of a disk as HFS for use by the GS? In other words, will ProDOS programs and data files run ok from an HFS partition, once I've booted from a ProDOS partion? This would solve the annoyance of having several 32MB partitions.
There is no HFS driver for ProDOS 8. So if you boot ProDOS 8 from that partition, you will only see the 32MB partition. If you install and run GS/OS on that ProDOS 8 partation then you will see both the ProDOS 8 partition and the HFS partition provided you install the HFS FST during the GS/OS install.
If you boot back to ProDOS 8 application while in GS/OS then you will not see the HFS partition.
At least that is the way I understand things to be. Glenn
