OK, I'll try that.

That's what I did - I think?

Yes I know...

I overlooked that (sorry), it is worth a try. I tried out to back-up my 
directory to the manually mounted FAT 32 system, but it is really to much 
trouble. While I got most of the uppercase/lowercase problems solved (only if 
I have two directories named DIR and dir I get a problem, but I shouldn't 
have that) Kmail (and maybe others) has names with ':' in it which don't get 
copied.  So I will go on and format the disk to reiserfs. If I need to set 
special mount options I try out if I can do it like described in the release 
notes.

Thanks to all
