I also don't see any real sense for that, vfat is most commonly used for small mediums that need to be read by a large number of different machines and operating systems. So having a working installation is the prerequisite when a USB-Stick, SDCards or something similar has to be formatted. After all it still can be mounted and read without the package installed. -- Jabber: [email protected] Blog: http://atsutane.freethoughts.de/ Key: 295AFBF4 FP: 39F8 80E5 0E49 A4D1 1341 E8F9 39E4 F17F 295A FBF4
