Dear all,<br>
<br>
Anyone can light on this, <br>
<br>
I'm installing Linux on my usb 16GB stick , but I'm wondering why only
vfat partition is needed to install the Linux on usb stick , why we
can't use extX type of FS to install the Linux???? is it necessary to
have vfat partition to install Linux instead of its native FS... ? is
there any solution for this ? <br>
<br>
<br>
I came to know that , SYSLINUX uses vfat .... thats why it is required
... but the same thing never happened in case of HDD ... I never
formated my hdd with vft to install Linux, it boots from extX type of
partition ... then why we need to format usb stick with vfat ????<br>
<br>
<br>
Warm Regards <br>
