The 1st version that supports FAT32 will be the 2.0.34 For the 2.0.29 => 2.0.33 kernels, you need to patch it and recompile it <A HREF="ftp://ftp.student.prov-liege.be:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/fat32.gz"><A HREF="ftp://ftp.student.prov-liege.be:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/fat32.gz</A">ftp://ftp.student.prov-liege.be:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/fat32.gz</A</A>> <A HREF="ftp://ftp.student.prov-liege.be:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/fat32.html"><A HREF="ftp://ftp.student.prov-liege.be:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/fat32.html</A">ftp://ftp.student.prov-liege.be:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/fat32.html</A</A>> I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure the 2.0.34-prepatches also include the FAT32 patches...

Linux] 32-bit FAT, repartitioning and LILO, differ Hi I am sure that Partition Magic ver.3.0 is worth every penny or cent like you say, but why pay 60/80$ when fips is free and in my experience works perfectly ( with one exception that I don't understand:- under M$95B on 1Gb HD it said I had approx 450 mb used and 575 free, after I used fips the max partition I could get for linux was 301Mb. Why? ). Anyway at the very least i'd have thought it worth trying ;-). goto <A HREF="http://bmrc.berkeley.edu/people/chaffee/fat32.html"><A HREF="http://bmrc.berkeley.edu/people/chaffee/fat32.html</A">http://bmrc.berkeley.edu/people/chaffee/fat32.html</A</A>>. As a newbie can somebody tell me the linux kernel version nº that first supported M$fat32?. jonathan@aracnet.net escribió:

a few friends want to install Linux. They use '95 with the new 32 bit FAT.

first:Is there a chance to repartitionate these FATs? And how? (fips or something similar. I've got no experience with that)

Get Partition Magic. It's worth the $60-80 you pay, you will do in 30 minutes what takes EXPERTS a couple of days to do. And you will do it again. And again. $60-80 is nothing, trust me (and I don't even have an income!) It supports ext2fs and FAT32.

I'll defer the other questions. I like your rm -Rf * suggestion though! :)
