Out of curiosity (and realizing that you might have to find a way to revert it), what happens if you copy the data off, format the drive as vfat, and put the data back on the drive? I'm curious if it 1. will still register as dynamic (or, hopefully, not) and 2. will be usable under both Windows and Linux for read/write.
Apparently it's possible to revert it to a non-dynamic drive, but I have
to backup my data and delete all the "volumes" on the drive first. Of course I don't have enough free space on the other drive to copy everything off this drive. I think I may have enough on one of
my desktop machines, but that means copying everything over the network,
which is gonna take forever...
Or I could back stuff up to DVD-R, but I'm not sure how long that would take either..
Oh well... no biggie, at least now I understand what's going on.
TTYL,
Phil
