Just noted another problem. I am trying to copy data from an Ubuntu system with an ext3 formatted hard disk drive to a FAT formatted USB stick. The system refuses to copy the file to the USB stick because it regards the file name as invalid. Well, it worked ok in ext3. Apparently FAT simply doesn't like certain characters or some syntax. So I am sorry I must say that your suggestion does not help. When you backup a full hard disk, you cannot change all file names to make them fit for FAT, can you? Certainly not.
