I haven't looked into it in several years, but I recall Linux's NTFS support as being essentially read-only. It could write to an NTFS file system, but was risky. Do you need support for files larger than 4 GB? If not, stick with VFAT. All three operating systems have solid support for it. -- Paul _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
