Why are you not suggesting using the 'convert' command? This allows you
to change an existing FAT32 filesystem to NTFS without losing all the
data currently on the disk. This might be preferable, especially for
people who have Voyager installed to a USB disk where a much larger part
of the disk is not used for mail but for different purposes.
