Be careful how you word it. Some users look at this as a way of saying "Linux is garbage, Windows rulz" but the truth is that the next write to that disk could very well loose data in unrelated files on the disk or even trash the whoe file system. Linux simply won't let you do that. Of course, the best way to prevent that is to perform the write on the same winbox that the disk was removed from, and pray that no other USB disk was used on that machine in the meantime (or that it was not rebooted). -- Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com http://gibberish.co.il א-ב-ג-ד-ה-ו-ז-ח-ט-י-ך-כ-ל-ם-מ-ן-נ-ס-ע-ף-פ-ץ-צ-ק-ר-ש-ת ä-ö-ü-ß-Ä-Ö-Ü
