It's worth to migrate to SFS for many reasons.
I've been using FFS since the first public betas, many years ago. I was very happy with it, as I never had problems with the Voyager cache partition, specially formatted in SFS for hard usage.
But I prefer to have FFS for my system partition, because it's the filesystem that my version of SmartFirmware can read (yes, I have "boot.img" in the normal SYS partition).
I'm thinking about creating a new, bigger SFS partition, and copy everything except "boot.img". Then, I would need to set this as bootable (easy, of course), and set the old one as non bootable, which I don't know how to do.
The partition tool in MorphOS does not allow to edit partitions, only create. Is there any other tool available? Otherwise, wasn't there a method of telling (to SmartFirmware's "boot" command) the partition I want to boot from, instead of having it search for a bootable one?

Yes, I've read about succesfull attempts, but it currently only supports shrinking partitions.
