Hey all - I'm getting a 250gb hard drive to store some files, and I need to partition this bad boy. I will need to be able to view/modify files in linux and windows as the drive will move about in an enclosure. I would use ntfs or etx3 if it was one os or the other, but as I need both, the only thing I can think of is FAT32.

My question is, will FAT allow me to create a single partition that big? If not, what would you all suggest doing.

Thanx! -Bill

I believe that max is 2TB however, I am not totally sure about that.

Flying majestically over the digital wasteland, blades chopping at the air at 3.4GHz, the mighty ROFLCOPTER soars.

The ROFLCOPTER is an important part of the defense of LOLrville. Along with the LMAOplane, TTYLnukes, and our troops carrying AFK47s, the ROFLCOPTER is used as a mobile troop carrier, and anti-TTYLTank weapons platform.

pretty sure that's right, but winblows only makes them 32gb as a way to push people into ntfs. Linux it is!
