Amiga computers may have been popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s, especially in media production, but their filesystems are not directly compatible with modern computers. The new ‘amifuse’ project aims to fix that with a new filesystem driver built around an invisible m68k CPU emulator.
Amifuse is a FUSE driver for macOS and Linux, allowing you to natively mount disk images using the Amiga’s Professional File System 3 (PFS3). The project’s documentation says other Amiga filesystems might work, “but have not been tested.” Disks are read-only by default, but you can enable the experimental read-write support through a command-line argument.
PFS is great, but not one of the Amiga’s native file systems. The standard file systems OFS and FFS have been available as Linux drivers at least since 2000. I remember rescuing my Amiga hard disk back then. It was still experimental and had to be specially compiled into the kernel, but it was possible.
