Hey All,

The TS LinuxARM Guide states: "Compact Flash and SD Cards must use
EXT2 format for file system. USB drives can use other formats, such as
VFAT."

In complete ignorance I've been using VFAT on the SD Cards with a
7260, and it appears to be working fine. I'm booting off the internal
Flash, mounting the SD Card, logging lots of data to it, popping it
into a Windows PC, and reading the data back.

>From messages on the group here, it looks like some of you are using
VFAT as well. Is there something I should be careful of? Or am I
setting myself up for a complete disaster?

Thanks,
Frank
