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.

I can't remember if it comes installed in FC3 by default or if I installed it by hand. It did work for viewing the contents of an iPod, however.

Hey Syd. Long time no see.

I'm using FC2. Think it'll work there?
I'll see if I can find an independent install of it. Does it also format disks as well?
