Hi all, thank you for the answers on the putty question which was actually a windows question, but I mnew that some of you have delt with it, so ... it worked. Now I got deck talk express with a serial cable, and need to make a partition for Linux on my HD. What file system to use? fat32 or ntfs? How large should the partition be (ment only for the OS, no other data)? When I do partitioning, what's the next step I need to take? Many thanks! Ned
