I ran some tests to verify compatibility between hard disks used on AROS 68k and hard disks used on AROS x86 32/64Bit, see screenshot

The first test was done with QEmu, where AROS 64bit is installed on a RAW hard disk and SFS BE (Standard AROS) file system, which correctly displays a HardFile with AROS 68k formatted on WinUAE in SFS BE. (Amiga 68k).

The second test was performed with WinUAE, where AROS 68k is installed on a RAW hard disk and SFS BE (Standard Amiga 68k) file system, correctly displaying a HardFile with AROS 64-bit formatted on Qemu in SFS BE (Standard AROS).

Conclusion: there is total compatibility between SFS Amiga 68k and SFS AROS x86 and 68k.

I would like to point out that AROS 68k currently on AROS 68k seems to indicate that InstallAROS cannot be used (it does not work properly), so it is not possible to initialise and format a hard disk with InstallAROS. AROS 68k, on the other hand, can use hard disks already created with WinUAE or HDToolbox (Amiga 68 or AROS 32/64bit).
