I use a ntfs partition on my otherwise ext3 formatted usb disk instead. This is because I do not have friends that still are on win 9x. Apart from one that I'll visit today and try to convert her to Linux. ;-)). I once tried to transfer 120 GB of music from win XP to a fat32 formatted external disk and it took days and nights. With ntfs it worked within one evening. Kind regards Eberhard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
