Will someone tell me where to look to find out why my NTFS partitions are still using 512byte clusters? I had the impression that the move to the linux boot disk (and its 4gig initial partitions) would enable 4k clusters.
Or was I just thinking that for no reason?
Well, it does not depend on the Linux boot disk. It depends on which OS you are installing (winxp/ws2k3 good, win2k bad) and which version of format.exe you have in Z:\dosbin.
Aha. I moved from 3.5 (.6?) to the linux bootdisk. I think it was about that time that I read the thing about the updated freedos format command, and the two blurred in my mind.
See "Is FAT -> NTFS conversion a bad idea?" in <http://unattended.sourceforge.net/faq.html#ntfs>, then ask again if you still have trouble.
Yeah, I'm primarily using win2k, so 512byte clusters it is then! :)
