You can mount the 1.3 FastFileSystem on a floppy via the mount command and
a suitable mountlist.  Just copy the default entry for RAD: and change
device to "trackdisk.device" and add Mask=0x7ffff to force the FS to do
all direct device access via CHIP buffers.

The 2.0 filesystem *IS* FastFileSystem with extensive changes made and
features added.  One of the main features is support for OFS format disks
(ie floppies) and full support for removable media.  Under 2.0 you can
format floppies in FFS mode and the ROM FS will automatically configure
itself to that format.  You can freely change between OFS and FFS format
just by inserting disks of that format in the drive.
