It could present a number of partitions, each with an partition/fs type liked by different OSes. Whichever partition ends up getting read by the OS selects the fs that the device serves. If the device presented a USB network interface, various network servers could be used... webdav, FTP, etc. Think NAS-in-your-pocket. -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ |E-Mail: smi...@zenzebra.mv.com PGP key ID: BC549F8B| |Fingerprint: 9329 DB4A 30F5 6EDA D2BA 3489 DAB7 555A BC54 9F8B| +---------------------------------------------------------------+
