Sure. Each Fat32 parition can be at most 32G but you can have multiple partitions on your mobile harddrive. For example, If you use parted: (You can actually format the drive under windows if you prefer). > parted /dev/sda (sda is your mobile harddrive. use sfdisk -l to check.) > mkpart primary fat32 0 100 .. more mkpart fat32 ... then insert entries in /etc/fstab like /dev/sda1 /mnt/share1 vfat user,noauto,utf8 0 0 /dev/sda2 /mnt/share2 vfat user,noauto,utf8 0 0 and mount the drive as > mount /dev/sda1 etc -- Bo Peng -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
