I have successfully used both PFS3AIO and SFS on minimig. Currently using 
PFS3AIO without problems. But I always prepare my hardrive images in WinUAE, 
maybe that is the reason?

Can you try to prepare a hd image in WinUAE and try if it works?

Hi,
As it was long ago I don't remember if I was also trying to create an HDD image 
with Winuae. I left it as is. I will try to the end of the week to create a 
partition on Winuae.

OK on the older firmware it was my partial fault. 4GB images make the unit to 
freeze. 1GB with PFS/3 worked. From last firmware 4GB works also fine. A good 
thing will be to allow the FPGA implementation to hadle NTFS formated SD cards 
then it will be possible on large SD to use images over 4GB

I received an email with your response, but for some reason the response is not 
visible here. Is this then confirmed not to be a problem?

somehow your response got deleted, so I un-deleted it.

Yes, FAT32 will only support files with size < 4GB. Since that is also AmigaOS 
limitation (without patched scsi.device), this shouldn't be much of a problem.

I'll look into support for the NTFS filesystem, but I'm not optimistic about 
it, since NTFS filesystem is much more complex than FAT32.
