I did that with several applications, a while back.  I cannot
remember off-hand which calls are the problem, but when I looked
them up in the Compendium, they were all marked as "supported
until TOS 1.04" or something that indicated they were obsolete.

Imagecopy is one program that flatly refuses to read or write
files to ext2, yet it is also one of the most usefull. 1st-guide
can access files, but cannot differenciate filenames beyond 12
characters. There were others I have tested too.
