Subject: Re: ext? as fat or ntfs?
For me with linux/windows i woudl create Fat 32 on volumes 2gb or less
or ntfs on volumes larger.

not the best choice but it is the most simple and portable one. fat
will even allow OSX compatability.

anything more complicated tar-gzip and a portable version of 7zip or
winrar if you need to keep complex file structures and permissions.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
