If I format the stick ext3 (via SSH), then I won't be able to simply plug the stick into my Mac to add new music files. *I'm trying to format the stick with 2 partitions in linux with parted*, and while this is successful, I can't get the stick to be read by my Mac. I took a look at what you did with pCP, as I can read the fat16 partition on my Mac, but when I try to do the same on my stick it doesn't work. Here's what I tried: (parted) mkpart primary fat16 1 4000 (parted) mkpart primary ext4 4000 8000 (parted) print Model: PNY USB 2.0 FD (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 8167MB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Disk Flags: Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 4000MB 3999MB primary fat16 lba 2 4000MB 8000MB 3999MB primary ext4 lba Looks like what you have in pCP (screenshot below), but what am I missing? +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: Screen Shot 2017-09-10 at 11.24.19 AM.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=23642| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ Tony  SBTouch ♪ SBRadio ♬ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tony T's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34544 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107352 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
