| brolin_empey | The path is too deep for Windows 7 but apparently not Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to delete a directory in an NTFS volume? | 01:58 |
| brolin_empey | Yes, apparently Ubuntu is happy to delete this directory that Windows 7 refuses to delete. | 02:21 |
| luke-jr | brolin_empey: remember NTFS support for Linux is reverse-engineered.. | 04:01 |
| brolin_empey | luke-jr: Not if you use captive NTFS, which uses the NTFS driver from Windows NT, but I do not know if captive NTFS is still supported/maintained. In this case, the directory I wanted to delete (howard2009_WinXP_SSD) was most of the contents of the root directory of an NTFS volume for Windows XP on an SSD (howard2009) that was replaced by another SSD with Windows 7 (howard64) when Windows XP became too antiquated, then this howard64 SSD was cloned to create | 05:01 |
| brolin_empey | the reception64 SSD to replace an HDD with Windows XP (reception2008 if I recall correctly) but this large directory was still left over on the reception64 volume, which was near full. | 05:01 |
| * luke-jr wonders if you can even use captive NTFS on ARM | 05:10 | |
| brolin_empey | Apparently I am five months late to learn that Chuck Peddle died. | 06:46 |
| luke-jr | who? | 06:54 |
