File-System Specifics

UAE will try its best to bridge the gap between Microsoft and Tripos file system semantics, but there are some inherent limitations:

1. The Windows "read only" flag controls the w and d bits on the Amiga side
2. r and e are always set
3. h, s and p cannot be set
4. The a flag is preserved
5. File comments are not supported
6. Not all file names that are "forbidden" under the lame Windows fs are
being handled correctly yet. The most common ones, however, are.

BEWARE: UAE does not live in a chroot-like environment (like in Unixish systems)! There is no checking for accesses to directories above the mount point. Do not assume that your data is absolutely safe from rogue Amiga programs!
