FAT16 is a partition type, as is ext2 (aka Linux native). Partition types are stored in a special table, not in the partition. The owner indicator is a special field within an ext2 filesystem. e2os changes the owner field. You can change the partition type using fdisk, cfdisk, etc. It should be Linux native (0x83, I believe) for the Hurd. It is *NOT* recommended to use the "GNU/Hurd" partition type code for ext2 partitions, because that is reserved for future Hurd-specific use. Hope this helps -John
