Mar 11 10:36:58 <FIlz> Hi, I'm using a USB storage device in combination with my fon 2.0n, but the speeds were kind off slow (formatted NTFS). So now I wanted to format the disk again, and I formatted using exFAT (since FAT32 isn't an option, filesize>4Gb). But it seems like exFAT isn't supported. Is there a way to make it work?
Mar 11 10:43:24 <blathijs> You can try ext2, but that requires special tools and drivers for formatting and using it on Windows
Mar 11 10:44:16 <blathijs> You could also try running a Linux livecd or other formatting tool to format it as FAT32, since the >4GB is only an artifical limitation of the Windows formatter, FAT32 itself supports big filesystems fine
Mar 11 10:45:59 <FIlz> Alright, I didn't knew that. I guess option 2 is probably the easiest one. Which livecd do you recommend?
Mar 11 10:48:17 <blathijs> Knoppix is a well-known one, but I'm not sure which is best (I just use full-time Linux ;-)
Mar 11 10:48:22 <blathijs> You might want to google a bit
Mar 11 10:48:46 <FIlz> Alright, thanks a lot!
Mar 11 12:18:33 <FIlz> @ Blathijs: Just formatted to FAT32 using Gparted (using Ultimate Boot CD)
Mar 11 12:18:46 <FIlz> But it can't handle files >4Gb
Mar 11 12:25:19 <FIlz> So, should I format it to ext2 or ext 3 (which one is better?) after all?
Mar 11 12:30:21 <FIlz> Well, I guess I'll be using the Ext2-driver after all (http://www.fs-driver.org/)
Mar 11 12:30:25 <FIlz> Thanks anyway!
Mar 11 16:09:28 <ceo> any body on this chanel ?
Mar 11 16:13:33 <blathijs> yup
Mar 11 16:13:39 <blathijs> Not looking all the time, though
Mar 11 16:17:22 <ceo> ll
