Not a problem. Just a followup.
Last night I had a friend format the area I reserved for Mac stuff on the hard drive. It was formatted HFS+. The Mac mounts it and the M$ partitions fine. The Mac sees the ext3 fs as a UFS (Unix File System) drive and does not mount it. Linux doesn't see the HFS+ partition. The hardware browser program in Fedora 2 says there is no file system on the partition. I haven't tried it under M$ yet. Past experience says it will only see the FAT32 partition.
So far this drive seems to be happy with what I throw on it. Apart from the HFS+, everything is EASY to do with Linux.
Later Mike
