Yes this is possible with the help of UnixFS, a module which lets you read and
write (but only to world-readable directories) to the RiscBSD partitions from
RiscOS.
If you're using the old filecore these partitions must be below the 512 MB
limit though, because UnixFS uses RiscOS to access them.
For the same reason, this harddisk must still contain a RiscOS partition and
bootblock, otherwise it won't be visible to RiscOS.
