If recovery console under XP is anything like that under 2k, its a complete 
pain in the backside ... gimme the ability to boot and see everything with 
a plain DOS boot disk anyday (which is what you get if you use an overlay 
and FAT32) ... lets face it, I can't think of a single advantage of using 
NTFS on a libretto. Apart from the slight bother factor I also can't see 
any reason NOT to use an overlay on the libretto given that you can damage 
the partition table just as easily with it as without it ... you just 
damage it up different ways if you don't use an overlay compared to if you 
do use one).

Of course, thats my 2 cents on the issue ...
