want to do). It appears Disk Utility wants to do one or the other. Kris also thought maybe I could do two partions both in HFS+ and then maybe go back and change one to Fat-32. Anyone tried this?

I'm thinking it's not going to let me change one. There is a method in Terminal that seems complicated and I don't know if I'm up for that.

Experiences welcome.

I have an OWC Mercury USB/firewire drive, that lets me format one partition as a unix filesystem, and the other as a MacOS filesystem.

I tried selecting the unix fileystem and choosing FAT32, and it would let me choose it, but I don't want to trash it at this time- I didn't implement the change.

Should work though.

Others here have said they can't do this; maybe the controller in the enclosure, or OWC has a better driver on the HD??
