2011-07-25 Thread Luke Arms (one fine day)
Hi, I maintain several backup hard drives with rsync in cygwin and until recently was using NTFS on all of them. Now, for easy read/write portability across Mac OS X and Windows, some of the external drives are FAT32 (try not to hate ... yes, I'm aware of its weaknesses), and I've noticed tha
