Using USB sticks for transfering files to be printed elsewhere I was wondering what formats can be read by windows. I have beeb using FA on a 2 Gb usb stick but formating a 16Gb usb stick runs into problems. Can windows read Linux formats like ext2 or ext4 formats.

I've used NTFS without problems. I believe Linux also supports FAT32. It's possible for Windows to use ext2 etc., with appropriate software installed. I used to use one, forgotten which, that worked with XP, but not W7, so I stopped using it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
