Thanks. The rooting instructions start with this step:
"""
1 Format your phone's SD card to FAT32 mode:
Hook your phone up to your computer using a USB cable and then wait
for the notification to show up in your title bar of your phone. Click
the notification, and then click "Mount". A new removable disk should
show up on your computer. Right click it and select Format, and select
FAT32 as the file system type.
"""

Would Linux users also have to format the card as FAT32, or is that
just because Windows does not recognise whatever filesystem is already
on the card (presumably desktop Linuxes would, as Android is
Linux-based)?
