Could I defrag my Win98SE disc from linux? It's a bit difficult to do in
Windows, as it insists on writing to the disc for no reason while defragging,
which slows it down a lot.

That's why!

AFAIK YES.
You do not need to defrag ext2-systems because they do not get fragmented
the way FAT does in the first place.

and it's better to be safe than sorry. I personally have n
Is there any regular maintaince that needs to be done to a linux box like in
Windows with defrag, scandisk, etc? I know that defragging in Windows can speed
up a system quite a bit, and I had never heard of anything like defragging in
Linux, which is why I was wondering if you even have to do it.
