State tax filing

Hi, 

My spouse is military with his home of record and current SLR as Minnesota.  I am a resident of Hawaii and all of my income was earned in Hawaii.  We wanted to do a "married joint" federal return and "married but separate" state returns, but found Minnesota does not allow different state and federal filing status while Hawaii does.  What is the best way to move forward?  Should we/can we file "MFJ federal with MFJ Minnesota and MFS Hawaii"?
