Acknowledged, some people sometimes may not care if a filesystem is natively supported by the OS. But in my experience, whenever I have added a non-native filesystem to Windows (such as ext3) it makes windows unstable. Generally causing frequent bluescreens. If something works, and works well, I say cool. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
