Have you considered using dd to make an image copy of the hdd2 partition to a file? If it works, that should remove the issue of the EZ-Drive partition table, but you would still have the issue of a vfat partition larger than 32gb, so this may not be of any value. However, if you then had a way of transferring the image to a windows system, although I don't know of any way to loopback mount a filesystem under windows so you would probably have to get it onto a physical drive. -- C.
