HOW TO RECOVER YOUR BOGART FORMATTED EXT.HD

Post by LouBruno »

There has been some discussion prior that an external HD, once FORMATTED in BOGART will NOT function anymore on a PC nor will be RECOGNIZED at all. This was due to the HD being formatted to the LINUX SYSTEM that BOGART enjoys. The PC will not recognize or display an icon in the MY COMPUTER area. To the user, it appears that the HD can only be dedicated to BOGART and the LINUX system only.

This is NOT so.

Here is a good tip: You can save your external HD and bring it back to use and specs to use on your PC ad vice versa for BOGART.

Go to: http://www.fs-driver.org/

Simply Download the file. That's it!

Go to MY COMPUTER and your LINUX-BASED HD will now appear once more.

"CLICK" on the LINUX HD and your PC will ask to format the drive for your PC. Worked fine. You can now use this external drive (in my case a LaCie) for both the BOGART and my PC just by reformatting. NOTE: It will be NTFS not FAT 32 but will still work with your PC and I ASSUME a MAC as well.

Hi Lou,
some days ago I sent an email +attachment to you.
Today I received a note that email failed reception.
Something wrong in your email program?

Ah Lou. You know what happens when you "assume" something. The URL describes the program as being supported by:
"Supports Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows Vista and Windows 2008." No mention of MAC. :cry:
