most devices which have as a requirement Mac OS 8.6 or better simoky behave as a USB mass storage and therefore can be mounted on Linux. If you read "Driver for Win 98 included" or "...downloadable from web page", you can be 99% sure it is class compliant. As you are on Linux, I'd like to recommend a device which also supports ogg, like some Samsung and TrekStor devices do. I also enjoy to have an FM receiver built in. Foldernavigation is a plus. I just purchased an TrekStor iBeat organix FM @ 1GB. It's not a cheap device, but I took my notebook to the store, mounted it, copied an ogg and it worked, so the decicion was made. And I was sure that the day will arrive when I want to use it to port an ISO image of 800MB, so avoid 512MB devices :) . Best regards, ce -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
