Hello!
Which filesystem is the best choice for a (8 or 16 GB and greater) usb stick?
It has to work on (K)ubuntu and Windows XP/7.
I know FAT/FAT32 but these limit the filesize to 4 GB, which is a problem with vbox-images and anything like this.
I don't know how far NTFS is supported by Kubuntu? I heard something about reading is no problem, writing is not 100% reliable?!? Or is this "old" knowledge?
Ext2/3 would be ok, but i think Windows does have problems with it. It should work out-of-the-box, i know there are ext2/3 drivers available for windows.
Any ideas?
Greetings Wudu
