Yes. It uses the standard PC/ST MS-DOS format. We have also included
a utility (two actually: one runs under AmigaMINIX, the other under
AmigaDOS) to transfer files from and to AmigaDOS.  We don't have a
program that reads and writes AmigaDOS files, because AmigaMINIX can't
read AmigaDOS disks (not to mention AmigaDOS file systems).
