Good call.  It's amazing that as many times as I have been bitten by 
that I can still forget.  I have only recently started making use of 
PM6.  For large FAT32 I still create a blank partition with PM3 and 
then format it with PM6.  Ptedit is still a good tool for changing the 
F to a 5.  I think it came with PM3.
