Remember to check permissions when you move file back off from FAT to EXT3. You probably don't want all your files and directories showing up with permissions of: rwxrwxrwx -- (This box runs Centos 5.0, my others still run FC 4, 5, 6, & 7, in case that's important to the thread.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
