Well, i identified a half of deletion problem. I didn't check the locks before delete. Now it doesn't delete locked objects. In WB 3.9 deletion works ok (honestly i didn't test before on 3.9), while 3.1 doing weird thing: If dir is not empty then it copy the lock and then deletes the content, then when it comes to deletion of dir itself it fails since lock haven't been freed. After fault, it frees the lock. So at the end, the content of dir is deleted (if there are internal dirs then they correctly deleted) while dir itself isn't. Then second attempt to delete this dir finally deletes it.

Just tested 3.1.4.
Good news: it automatically updates window when file is copied/deleted.
Bad news: all files paired with .info are totally invisible on shared disk. Even if you select "show all", they are still invisible in WB. Only if i rename .info to something different then both original file and its .info addon becomes visible. In DirOpus - no problems.

fixed .info problem in 3.1.4
So it seems sharing is correctly working in 3.1.4 now.

This sounds pretty exciting, I've been following this thread for the last few days and wanted to create a post to see if I could give it a try. Just so I understand, is this the correct process?:
  • Ensure you have a directory available at /linux/media/fat/Amiga/shared on your sd card
  • Install the AmigaOS/Workbench driver provided by apolkosnik
  • Reboot and then start sharing files between the SD card and Workbench?
Do we need to wait for an update to the core in order for this to work, Sorgelig? And will this only work with 3.1.4 or is it worth testing with some earlier versions?

no. The driver in apolkosnik repo is for a314. It's of course not compatible with MiSTer

Apologies, I thought this was the modified version you were asking about in your original post. I shall wait patiently for more info.

To reduce confusion, I'll delete that repo.
