Well, I did transfer from Linux ext3 to a USB drive that is in FAT32 and then onto the server back into ext3 [1]. This was something that I had not done before and as Chris and Juan Miguel have mentioned I have also been a victim of case-change by the USB Drive. In my case, it's because I created the drive in VFAT to have compatibility with Windoze machines, but made the apparent mistake of using UTF-8 encoding in that partition. I should have noticed the warning every time I mounted the drive, but since I have gotten used to mounting and unmounting using Gnome I had never noticed this particular message:
"FAT: utf8 is not a recommended IO charset for FAT filesystems, filesystem will be case sensitive!" Of course, the message is misleading as it should say case IN-sensitive, or "you may experience very bad and broken case sensitive problems!". Anyway, thanks a lot for your replies, sometimes we need several eyes to see something so obvious! And of course, my USB drive is going to ext3 or reiserfs immediately! Warm regards, Alejandro Imass [1] Without tarballing. USB 2 drives are so fast that many times it's much faster to copy the whole directory. It turned out to be a very bad idea :-( On 12/18/06, Christopher H. Laco <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

What os were you on? For me, copying things over to my FAT formatted USB stick in Unbuntu lowercaed a version of CatInABox for me. That sucked ass. I have to go through and fix everything. :-/ -=Chris _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
