PS3 with Fedora

view full story
linux-howto

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I know that currently the PS3 only supports FAT32 Format for drives. But my issue with FAT32 like everyone else is the restriction of 4Gig file size. I have some files that are over 4Gig that I currently have on my drive that is set as NTFS format but NTFS is not supported by the PS3. So my question is, if I leave my Drive as NTFS Format so I can have bigger than 4Gig files and install Fedora 10 or 11, will I then be able to start the PS3 in the Fedora operating system and then be able to connect my external hard drive which is formatted as NTFS and watch the file on the PS3 while running in Fedora? Any in site on this would be great. Thank you. (HowTos)

My external hard drive (500GB WD "My Passport") show's no files, yet it is half full, i think it is also FAT32, not NTFS, as in, it was* NTFS i think, (not 100% sure, but i bought it NTFS, it should be NTFS) and now it shows FAT32 and my files cannot be seen, what is the easiest and quickest way to get over 230GB of files back on this hard drive, i don't think i can fit ALL of my files on my inter

[ubuntu] hard drive format 3 years 30 weeks ago

i just bought windows 7 (i know, you all hate me) and im trying to install it from my laptop running ubuntu 9.04 linux. when i get to the install stage i get the message "windows setup cannot find a location to install temporary files". i believe this is because my hard drive partition is not in NTFS format, therefore windows cannot attach its files to it.

I would like some advice on how to access and reformat an external USB drive (Hitachi). Using the command-line interface I do not know what device it is, and am unsure of the commands. Using the GUI I cannot see the drive at all. This is what I have found so far: 1. From a Windows PC networked I can see the drive, and all its files, though it only shows 18 Gb size when it has 1Tb.

I run fedora and win 7, but rather than dual booting, I just have each on a separate hard drive. I reinstalled Fedora today, but copied a bunch of backup files to the windows drive (NTFS format).

[SOLVED] airport base extreme 2 years 42 weeks ago

Hi all so this is kind of a question and a how to get to where i'm at

I have 3 pc's at home which are the following

1x XP box 1x Ubuntu 10LTS dual boot vista (i know its bad) 1x Macbook Pro

i also have an Airport Extreme Base station with a 1tb HD (formatted HFS+) in the AEBS as well as a printer

Hey I am trying to put Windows 7 on my linux machine running Ubuntu 11.04. I formatted my spare drive (1TB) to NTFS with two partitions of 500 GB each. When I ran the Installation CD and went to select a drive to install it to. I received an error message saying that the setup could not detect any NTFS formatted drives. Not sure why this is because there is one.

Hi, I just bought a 500 gß HDD (Seagate 7200 spin, SATA), with the goal of loading my media on it, to be read both by Win 7 and Kubuntu. The drive would not format in Win 7, so I used Gparted in Kubuntu Live to try and format the drive. Originially formatted to NTFS, but upon rebooting windows, it said the drive was write protected.

I'm running Linux Mint and have a 2TB drive that I formatted as NTFS. I copied ~120GB of files from another computer to the 2TB drive, removing the files from the other computer as I did so.

Lost files on NTFS partition 3 years 18 weeks ago

Hi, I'm new to fedora but not completly new to linux.

Now i wanted to copy some folders _from_ my NTFS partitioned drive to a folder in a XFS partitioned on another drive. I marked them and clicked with the mouse and dragged the icons to the folder in the other drive.

Nothing -seeable- happens.
