As a follow-up on my previous reply:
I tested what happens if I mess up the mtime of a file in the backup-archive.
When restoring, the data of the metafile is used, so no worries there.
I also tried adding files to the archive and then restoring. The files I
manually added are not restored, so no worries there either.
So it seems you don't have much to worry about, putting your backup on a
partition which Windows can access, but still, FAT32... I wouldn't risk it...
I've lost several gigabytes several times because of FAT32.
