The 'non-contiguous' stuff means that some files (1%) are fragmented: one piece here, one piece there, etc. Ext2 is very good at storing most files in one piece. M$ didn't manage that until NTFS, you had to run 'defrag' from time to time. (At least I think/hope that NTFS doesn't fragment your files) So no, I shouldn't worry about that. David -- Hi!
