Anyone knows how I can possibly change my file system to fat32 from ntfs? </offtopic>
Tip of the day: Use partition magic (it even can convert to linux-fs)! But what is the intention of this mail (I think ntfs write option is quite experimental from linux while fat32 can be written)? <funtag on> Once upon a long a go ... ... a friend asked me the same question and afterwards if he could use fat32 with linux as he couldn't write-access ntfs at that time. I told him how to do but said to him he better partition it as ext3 because of speed and security compared with fat32. So he did but forgot that all data would be lost after repartitioning and formatting. For goodness mr. lucky guy had made a backup of his data a week before that. He was the same guy formatting his linux two year ago because his soundcard didn't work. After a while of consolehacking, google-ing and investigating he setup windows again (it would be the better solution ... lmao). After windows was setup the soundcard didn't work again and he plugged in the cable. Now he runs linux again with success (after I told him of developer-benetfits under linux as he developes java-code for his diploma-work). <funtag off> Philippe
