I see. I guess I missed this before because it is so obvious.

Niche? Isn't this the standard way for many users to copy data from an
image to a filesystem and vice versa?
The users also know which drives their partitions use.

I have to admit that I still don't know a use case where the "Add GEMDOS
HD after ACSI/SCSI/IDE partitions" option can be used and actually makes a
difference. Can you point out a simple use case, let's say for an emulated
TT with TOS 3.06, a SCSI drive with 2 partitions and a mapped GEMDOS folder
with two subfolders? Thank you!

Best regards

Uwe
