Solution to NTFS cluster resizing
Depending on how he did it I "guess" he could have a 32 partition as well as NTFS on the same drive, but to dual boot/whatever with NT alone as the manager, you need to use fat 16 throughout. I think. In this case, bye bye goes NTFS, bye bye individual file permissions, bye bye security as well as the opportunity

Checking the index of the book Running Linux, the most comprehensive in my collection, could not find any reference to a Reiser file system or ext2/3/reiserfs partitions. The point is, linux likes (needs?) to live on a file system that allows case specific file names and file permissions.

mounting a fat32 partition, allowing all users
FAT32 for NT is really designed to allow NT to access a Win98 partition on a dual boot system, not to allow you to run NT on a FAT32 partition. NT is much more stable on NTFS, as the filing system keeps track of the file permissions, so the system will know if it is being told to mess about with a file that

Somewhat off topic but related to VMware
Obviously for file security (or better said, the ability to give "permissions" to files and folders) NTFS is the only route you have since FAT doesn't support it. If the user is in the work environment and that is an issue, then that is the best choice. On the other hand, if you wish to have a home use or dual boot

file permissions
What you need for a dual boot are two partitions. They can both be FAT 32. If you want to be able to see your data on both partitions from either OS, then use FAT32, but for studying purposes & to truly understand file permissions & such, I strongly urge you to have 1 NTFS partition. to create the two partitions,

Unable to write to a dos mounted drive
Also, NTFS provides support for security such as file permissions. FAT32 only allows for sharing security of folders. NTFS allows for compression and I recommend NTFS for non-dual boot scenarios for the added features of security of the file system. -- Gerry O'Brien, MCP Corporate Trainer/Developer ICQ#
