All DOS emulation products I have seen at least in the past has that

as the partition has been FAT.

It is possible that now there is support for NTFS but not heard about such.

Did look at Mystic - again, but the versions now are no longer O/S and I will
not run system s/w that isn't. I did for a time run Mystic before moving to
mbse as a native Linux/*nix run BBS that caters easily for multi users / nodes
polling logging in to the system at the same time, subject to your BB speeds
but as my upload is 20Mb it is more than enough for most of my links.

This way I can have 10+ system connected at the same time (BBS, web & FTP).
