Get Poseidon to automatically recognize Mac-formatted Zip disks?

[LoadWB]

Poseidon will automatically attempt to load a filesystem from the RDB of a Zip disk, then fall back to fat95 or ntfs.  Anyone have an easy way to get it to recognize Mac-formatted disks?  I could create a DOS device if necessary, but it'd be easier to get the USB stack to recognize the filesystem.

I guess you are missing compatible filesystem, namely HFS.

I have the CrossMac filesystem installed and a working ZMC: for the old SCSI Zip drive on cybppcscsi.device (or cybppc.device, can't recall which OTTOMH.)  Would just like Poseidon do it for me.

*sigh*  Admittedly, I haven't looked through the docs.  This may be a case of RTFM and I welcome the trout slap if that's the case.

No, there is no easy way to do that with Poseidon for 68k. MorphOS would go through the mount.library, but on 68k, it relies on custom filesystem detection routines inside the massstorage.class -- which doesn't have support for the rather exotic HFS formatted media. Sorry.

Well, that's a bummer.  This is a rather exotic case for me as I don't normally deal with Mac-formatted media (though I do have a MAC0: floppy device always available,) so using a special mountlist for the Zip drive (or others) isn't such a horrid thing.

I'll try it on MorphOS, as well, to see how that works for me.  I'm slowly getting used to it though my A4000D is still my main machine.  (Also, thanks for recognizing that I'm on a 68k machine -- I forget that 68k isn't the only game in town these days.)

When you say 4000 as your main machine, do you mean main amiga or main computer period?
