Subject:	SCOUG-General: Partition Magic and related questions

Content Type: text/plain

The Linux ext2 file system seems very popular these days.

There are drivers for OS/2, WinNT, DOS, and many more.

http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Filesystems-HOWTO.html

has a lot of good info.

EXT2 does NOT support OS/2 extended attributes.
