i have just formatted my new 160gb ext hd to two partitions: 100gb in fat32 and the rest in HFS+..
i was just getting ready to backup files, and here's what happened:
i transferred a dmg file into the fat32 partition, then created a new folder in that partition (named 'apps'), then moved the dmg file into the 'apps' folder. it worked fine, but then, i created another folder (named 'backup') and i tried to move the 'apps' folder into the 'backup' folder. it said that the operation could not be completed, error code 122.
can anyone tell me what the problem is? should i just reformat the whole thing to HFS? or maybe to NTFS then use Paragon? or is there a solution to this? i'd really like to be able to transfer files to and from my mac to other windows PCs.. thanks
