No I didn't. Is it so fun? :) I didn't say fat32 is a good FS but IMHO it's a FS with less constraints than other ones. Imagine your network is down or you don't remember the name of the driver and you need to access to the data stored on a FFS disk from a new win box. I would say it's also fun :) To avoid this problem, you can create a small fat partition, store all the drivers (ext, ufs, ...) on it, and create multiple ufs/ext/.. partitions to prevent huge data loss. But it depends on the use you will have of your disk.
