The choice depends on the size of the pendrive. FAT16 is capable of addressing 2^16 bytes (64 KiB) whereas FAT32 is capable of addressing 2^32 bytes (4 GiB). If you happen to own a pendrive with capacity greater than 4 GiB, then you will have to use FAT64 (AFAIK this does not yet exist) or another file system like ext2 that does not suffer from this problem. -- Hardware: The parts of a computer system that can be kicked. -- ubuntu-in mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
