Hello, Warren.
You wrote at 16-Aug-00 concerning "*[amigaOS3_5] Re: Changing from FFS to SFS or PFS (or from SFS/PFS to FFS etc.)*":

Those identifiers are only hex values of the char code table.(0x=Hex)
hex dec char
55 85 U
4E 78 N
49 73 I
Don't know, where this entry comes from, but it's obviously no SFS
identifier.

??? As you see, this is the same! (look above)
I think, if you want to install SFS, there should be something like
hex dec char
53 83 S
46 70 F
53 83 S
But I'm not sure, because my file system is PFS, identifier ...
hex dec char
50 80 P
46 70 F
53 83 S
