The reason they have FAT32 support is because they are just the standard default bins. They are not configured to run on your system. They therefore are not very high performance. They usually take up way too much memory because they include all kinds of things you probably dont even have. It is always good to compile your own kernels. Try it, you'll find it makes a HUGE difference. Brian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
