How does Linux treat that drive? Or should I say.. What is the name of
the partition(s) you use?  Not that it matters, I'm just curious.

Cool.

BTW, I looked into DAR and they made reference to KDAR so I'm giving
that a try.  (I'm running both GNOME and KDE).  It seemed less
complicated. And it will write me a lovely shell script when I can then
use for daily cron jobs.

Thanks for your help.
