Hi Mike & Greg,
I've gotta run, but thought I'd toss this into the equation for discussion...
I create and 'stage' backups and multimedia files in excess of 2GB and 4GB
regularly on my FAT32 partitions from the Linux side. XP handles them
transparently, but I don't know about Win98/98SE or earlier. That, I think,
is a good question for Google, since there are plenty of reliable online
sources to verify what the facts are. I personally would never recommend
writing to NTFS from Linux, but YMMV.
regards,
- Carl
