Quite easy !

I guess that you met a generic problem with Amiga. I don't exactly remember
which Amiga, but with some Amiga, the BFFS(5berkeley Fast File System, aka
NetBSD filesystem) is not visable. There is a solution, very simple solution.
Get BFFS (1.4 readonly is good if I remember well) for Amiga and put the
file onto your RDB with HDToolBox (as you would put the file 'L:FastFileSystem')

Good luck
