posixovl provides a filesystem view that supports various POSIX operations while using an otherwise incapable lower filesystem. Filesystems of various degrees of POSIXness can be utilitzed. VFAT is a common denominator when it comes to cross-compatibility, though NTFS — its features are unused in Linux — would be another possibility.
