I wonder....if a person was to create msdos partitions, but
put Linux stuff on it. Example, the /usr is a partition
on hda3. But instead of type ext2, he makes it type msdos,
or vfat or something like that. Then it would be *visible*
to Windows and Linux too.
Would it even work? Can an msdos partition/filesystem support
Linux files, permissions, ownership etc?
Just curious.
