Use FAT32 filesystem, or ext2fs

We do use fat 32/12... Do you read the posts before you reply to them??
This post has nothing to do with file SYSTEMS... We are talking about the SIZE of the ramdisk. |

Do you read the posts before you reply to them?? yes, i have replied on a post, and i was exactly talking about ramdisk, ramdisk has to emulate a file system in order to store files on it. you can't make a large ramdisk which emulates fat12 like a floppy, you can emulate many small floppies that way.

Thanks!, another question. I have a image of my distro (MenuetOS DEV Edition) and i cant copy file anymore. The disk have a lot of free space, but i cant copy more files. Is Fat12 limited in the number of files ?
Thanks for your time |

perhaps defragging it would help?

There is a limit to root file entrie I believe.
Delete a file, make a directory and copy the files there. It might work. |

Fat12 only allows a certain amount of root files. (256? 512? i forgot)
The way the Menuet ramdisk is coded, it can not be changed that easy. |
