I needed to have a external drive that I could easily move from Win7, Mac OS 10.7, and openSUSE.
I preferred it not to have the 2GB limit that vfat has.
I know ExFAT is supported on the Mac and on Win7, so I went with it.
To my surprise, both the Mac and Win7 have no issue, but at least a vanilla opensuse 12.1 won't mount it!
Is there something I can install, or hax linux fallen behind in this area?
Thanks Greg
First point under Disadvantages: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT#Disadvantages Why not use NTFS? The Open Source drivers are pretty stable. But I use Paragon with perfect success. http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-linux-per/download.html Or use a commercial driver for exFat: http://www.tuxera.com/news/tuxera-exfat-now-available-for-android-and-linux/ -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
