similar to: How should I be using rsync with FAT32/VFAT

Thanks a lot, Kevin. I have a new Linux box and tried to set it to UTC but I think gnome outsmarted me... I'll use -rt and maybe ignore timestamps entirely rather than the window. If I find something wrong on the USB stick I can always copy it again. I love the -c option, but it takes forever on slow media.

#1 yes, you should use -rt instead of -a as everything else in -a is incompatible with vfat. #2 timestamps will always be a problem on vfat. It has a 1 or 2 second resolution so --modify-window=2 is a common solution. However, if you live somewhere that has yearly clock changes (we call it daylight savings time) those will cause the timestamps to be off by an hour on top of the 1-2 second

You don't have to change the system setting just change the TZ env variable in the terminal you run rsync in.

I'm running Samba on Ubuntu server. I know, perhaps it is not related with Ubuntu Server 8.04, but rather with Samba itself, but I thought perhaps someone has similar experience... I have a couple of shares on Samba on a vfat (fat32) volume. As everybody knows Linux permissions does not work on vfat, except on mount folder where vfat partition is mounted. I though that is really not a

I am trying to mount a FAT32 partition in CentOS. I'm following the instructions on this page: http://www.linuxforum.com/linux_tutorials/14/1.php This is the line I put into /etc/fstab /dev/hda /mnt/windows vfat users,owner,rw,umask=000 0 0 And this is the error I get: [root at localhost mnt]# mount -a mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on

Greetings All, I recently installed SUSE 11 64 bit and Wine v1 and have run into a strange problem. Most of the Windows applications that I try to run fail DLL loading if the application is installed on a FAT32 formatted disk. If I copy the application files to an EXT2 formatted partition, Wine will run these applications without any problems. Prior to installing SUSE 11, I was running SUSE

Hello. I am trying to create a text file that contains an accent like '?' in it's filename on a vfat filesystem. This generates an error like the following: "test?.txt" E212: Can't open file for writing I have made a 'modprobe nls_cp850' and 'modprobe nls_iso8859-1' to load those needed modules. Then I mounted my FAT32 partition like this: mount -t

Hi, I've tried a couple of different versions/distros and can't seem to mount a FAT32 (vfat) partition and then share it with Samba, such that all use of R/A/S/H attributes (for files and folder) is maintained... So I'm wondering if this is even possible? I've most recently been testing with host: Debian 4.0 (Linux 2.6.18-4-686) which includes Samba 3.0.24 client: WinXP

Hi, my name is Steven.

Hi, Which version of Mac OS X are you running? If you are on Mac OS 10.5.x then I can only suggest that you try either formating the drive to HFS + or creating a disk image with an HFS+ file system. If you are running Mac OS 10.4.x then ensure that that ACL support is enabled on the drive. The following URL contains information on how to check and enable ACL support :

Hi! i just downloaded 20010510 sources, compiled and installed it on my RedHat 7.1 linux box. I have several vfat (fat32) and linux (ext2) partitions on my pc ( i also have a windows98 installation). I have configured the fat32 parrtition like: [Drive E] "Path" = "/deposito" "Type" = "hd" "Filesystem" = "vfat" and the ext2 like:

Hi, I have a custom linux system that runs off a FAT32 usb flash disk. I use syslinux to make it bootable and load the kernel. I'm trying to boot now from a SSD SATA disk (500GB) but it's not working and I can't figure out why. BIOS show that no bootable disk were found. What I already tried (linux fdisk): 1- Creating a new DOS partition table on the SSD, a FAT32 (type b), and

I am trying to use rsync between two local directories on Linux. The source directory is on a normal ext4 partition, under my home directory. The destination is an SD card that I insert into the card reader on the computer, formatted with a vfat filesystem. The command line is like rsync -avC --delete /home/itz/foo/ /media/itz/DEAD-BEEF/foo/ This does not work as I expected: all files are

I am running RedHat 7.1 on it's own linux drive, and have my win98 drive mounted in fstab as vfat. I have installed wine, and can run programs on my windows drive in old 8.3 named directoies. However, whenever I try to run anything in Program Files, for example (with the space in the file name), I get the following error: /opt/wine/bin/wine.bin: cannot find 'mnt/c/Program\

it's most likely because of vfat timestamp limitation try --modify-window ????????????? When comparing two timestamps, rsync treats the timestamps as being equal if they differ by no more than? the modify-window ????????????? value.?? This? is? normally? 0 (for an exact match), but you may find it useful to set this to a larger value in some situa- ????????????? tions.? In particular,
