I'd bet someone will come up with a scheme to do this. If you wrote a
driver for the Unix side, it would need to understand all about Amiga file
structure; vice-versa, if someone wrote a driver (file handler) for the
Amiga side, it would need to understand Unix file systems. Sounds like a
difficult task for both ends. Of course, you couldn't do a simpler active
link because you can't be running AmigaDOS and Unix at the same time.
It might be possible to use a tape as the exchange medium… as just raw
blocks, 'tar' on both sides would be happy. Or, I bet you could do it with
floppies, or a partition that acted like a tape, as just raw data without
low-level file structure.
