2 daft questions ...
1) whats a post like this doing in the tomcat forum ?
2) why WHY WHY ???? would you format a disk to be used by
linux as a windows format ?
Try ext2 / ext3 / any of the other native formats !
They are alot better !
NTFS is an 'experimental' filing system under linux ATM IIRC
good luck !
