Nifty trick, that where some unix-type programs can act differently based on what name they were invoked with. The dos version I have on this box is supposed to act the same way, but unfortunately dos doesn't give me the option of making links, so I have two copies, with different names, wasting a whole 63k or so of disk space... :-) WC> Don't think I'll be buying that partition imaging program either WC> as the one that comes with Knoppix does FAT 16, 32, ext2fs but WC> unfortunately not ext3fs. Not much difference there -- you can go from ext3 to ext2 and back again without much trouble. Just involves something to do with the journal file. I forget the details but someone in the linux echo would know. That's one of the reasons I went to ext3 on my partitions here when I had some flaky power, things were getting too tedious waiting for those filesystem checks when it returned...
