FAT32/vfat is commonly used for file systems that need to be used by both Windows & Linux, but it will not handle some Linux constructs like symbolic links. Can a USB drive be formatted for a Linux specific file system such as ext3 or ext2? This makes good sense if a USB drive is to be used exclusively on Linux systems. Has anyone done this successfully? I could try on one of my USB drives, but I'm chicken and don't want to take the chance of nuking it. -mj- --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
