RE: write to ntfs-partition?

I suggest that you use fat32 (vfat) partitions with win2k, saves loads of
potential problems.  I have had my hard drive eaten by NT when it discovered
a "problem" with a single file on the NTFS partition and ended up corrupting
every file.  If it weren't for a backup, I'd have lost tons of data, instead
I lost a day rebuilding.
