Congratulations.  If you install GS/OS System 6.0 or
System 6.0.1 and the HFS FST, you can read, write,
and format HFS disks on the IIGS too.

In other words, not only can you COPY the volume,
you can read, write, copy, delete, create, save,
open FILES from an HFS volume on the IIGS.

You can also format hard drive volumes larger than
32MB using HFS on the IIGS.

HFS is one of the two fully supported file systems
on the IIGS.  ISO9660 (a CD file system) and the
MS-DOS file system are read-only supported.
