Thank you, that's indeed a scenario I have no use for. For my setup it is
important that the GEMDOS folders reflect the partitions on the hard drives
of my real Ataris, so that all environments are essentially identical. The
only difference is the git repository folders for my Atari projects on the
GEMODS drives, which are only present in Hatari.
Best regards
