I don't think the floppy controller passthrough access been implemented yet. The MK4 also doesn't work under the current release of WinUAE. I would send a friendly email to Jens and let him know that you're anxious for those features to be implemented. :-)

While technically possible, I don't think anyone will be writing FFS drivers for Windows. Microsoft charges $999.00 for their Installable File System kit, which is a little steep for a hobbyist or a professional developer with little interest in Windows programming. [checking Microsoft's site] Hey! They dropped the price to $109.00, but I'd still like to see a free version. There's a GNU clone of the kit available, but I doubt anyone in Amigaland would be willing to write a GNU driver from scratch.

I'd like to use the passthrough feature just to keep my chassis from getting over-populated. . . .
