Is there a way to get it to use SFS natively yet?

As far as I know, it's not (yet).
The Problem is, that GRUB (the Bootloader) is not able to boot from a SFS Partition. I am sure this will be fixed someday.

As a workaround, couldn't you have a small FFS boot partition and then a large SFS partition which contains the OS? The startup-sequence on the FFS partition transfers all of the default assigns (C:, S:, LIBS:.....) over to the corresponding directories on the SFS drive and then executes the startup-sequence from the SFS partition.

I don't use AROS myself. It was just a suggestion :-) Maybe somebody who is using AROS can suggest this to the developers.

@pierre
No, there is no emulation in AROS. Software has to be written for AROS for it to run. I think there is an AROS version of UAE which might let you run some of your older software under AROS.
