Hi All,

Basically I need to know which is the best way to partition/format a hard 
drive which is going to be shared by Linux/WinMe.

The hard drive had some read errors (in WinME), so I went into Harddrake and 
deleted the partition (i have tape backup) and rebuilt using FAT32 LBA on 
primary. This is a single partition using all available space (4.2G). Made it 
active and formated the space, saved config to 'fstab' and rebooted machine. 

Problem: 

I can see the drive and write to the drive in Linux. I boot into WinME 
and...cannot see the Linux data. But I can write to the drive and created a 
dir and file. I boot back into Linux...I can see the files created by Linux, 
but not the WinME files.

For test purposes I just created a directory named linux_dir with a single 
file named linux_file. Did the same in windoze.

Does anyone have any idea what is going on here. I have a couple of Linux 
books but cannot find any pitful that I may fallen into.

Thanks in advance.

Dave
