Sharing drive between OS/2 and linux
Dave Yeo:
Here's how things look here when booted to Mint-Cinnamon. Today it didn't open the USB drives AOS formatted JFS 1 TB volume as sudo but the context menu allows it. Some folders have previously been chown by me. I also took the opportunity to trim my SSD's ArcaOS volumes. /dev/sda7 is my AOS HPFS 4GB boot volume.

A couple of linux machines and one ArcaOS 5.0.7 + Windows XP ;D dual boot desktop. The external drive would be a clone of my old thumbdrive that is filled with tools and drivers for many systems. I do have a OpenBSD NAS in use already, maybe carrying a hard drive around is passé.

That's why i also use JFS on my Devuan machines (root, home and a case insensitive wine partition).
Ben Hjelt:
:-[ Seems to be a bug in the latest Devuan 4/Debian 11!
The ArcaOS formatted disk can be mounted in Devuan 3/Debian 10:
The partition name encoding seems to be unknown though.
EDIT: fixed by renaming it to all lowercase in linux, displays as uppercase in OS/2

Yes, HPFS has a 2GB file size limitation and a 64GB volume size limitation. I have a 20GB HPFS 386 partition, used by ArcaOS, I mount R/W under Linux.
