My        AA> media player (which is about 10 yrs old now) only supports usb        AA> drives that are FAT formatted.              I've run across this issue many, many times. It makes me happy that I never       bought one of those when they were all the rage. These days I am more likely       to run into people having issues with playing mpegs and the such that are       incompatible with Apple media software. I have yet to run across one of them       that has issues with FAT formatted usb disks.              The more I run across these types of issues, the more I pat myself on the back       with sticking with Linux all this time. I seriously doubt I could just pick       it up nowadays as it took me decades to reach where I am now. Learning all       this now would be impossible for me.              I can appreciate your want for a suitable split. The busybox one looks to be       the winner in your situation although a properly modern gnu one would have       been the best of all, were it a reality.               |
