[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 112191, member: 5184"] The only way to format your iPod is with the iPod software, using the Recovery-option. There is no option to choose the filesystem, which means, formatted on the Mac: HFS+, formatted on the PC: FAT32. So you can only do that from the PC. Do NOT, by any means, format the iPod using Disk Utility, or under Windows formatting from the Explorer. This will render your iPod totally useless. [/QUOTE]
