Re: formatting in linux
I have a external hard disk partitioned in a similar way (70% reiserfs, 30% FAT32). No problem at all. When I plug it to a linux machine, two pop-up windows appear, one for each partition. When plugging it to Windows, only the FAT32 is recogniced.
BTW, the fastest filesystem of all that bunch is the old, unreliable, completely lacking on metadata, prone to fragment, well-known FAT32. Usually the lack of features means faster operation.
