How to safely move into a Fat-32 file system from a Fat-16 one? In my
machine, I fave Fat-16 filesystem, in which I am duel booting into
Win'95 and Linux (RedHat 6.1). The Win'95 resides in the primary
partition and Linux on extended partitions. If I use fdisk/cfdisk on
linux to change the file system type to Fat-32, will I permenanlt trash
my machine. I don't bother about trashing my Windows, but if my Linux
partition becomes unusuable, I will be in  a dead fix!

What is the safest way to do it without ever reinstalling the Linux
part? Will appreciate any suggestion.
