Hi all,
Just wondering if anybody has had any experience of writing to an ext3
partition within windows.
If found this driver, http://www.fs-driver.org/ . Sound goods, but only
has ext2 support.
Does anybody know of anything similar for ext3?
Why? Because I'm thinking of setting up a 120GB RAID 1 (mirror) and want
to share the mirror between Windows and Linux for backups.
Thanks.
Why not use FAT32? Both Linux and Windows can use it. (...And *BSD and
DOS and...)
Plus, as you're using it for backups, you most likely don't need
journaling/security/etc.

Maximum file size is 4GB, my "My Documents" directory in Windows is
8GB, and I use the Windows Backup Utility, which isn't very sophisticated.
I suppose I could back it up to my NTFS volume, then zip/rar it as 4GB
volumes... also it seems silly to have that limitation, of 4GB.
You're right, I'm not worried about journaling etc, it's mirror...
