Thanks for the suggestion. For now, I only have MacOS machines available to me and my understanding is there isn't really a way to format the disk to EXT4 (and still have read/write access to update the files I store on it). Understanding that ExFAT isn't native to Linux, but that the userspace drivers installed via the file system extensions in PCP (per my understanding) are designed to allow them to be used, are you saying that this is not always a solution that can be relied on? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kowloonside's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23798 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112688 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
