HyperCard prior to 2.0 wasn't very smart about all the intricacies of the 
file systems and consequently didn't work with MFS volumes. All the file 
handling code got rewritten in 2.0 and as a side-effect of following the 
rules you can now use MFS volumes. This is in addition to a bunch of other 
bugs and limitations that disappeared as a result of this work.
