Should work...the trick is formatting the card as a Mac volume. Basically: Turn off PC Exchange, reboot. Insert card, Mac will say 'This disk is unreadable, do you want to format?' say yes. Note: In order to use this as a camera card again, you will have to format the card in your camera. Now you specify this new disk as the place to put your VM cache. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
