Read-only pendrive sectors
hello ;)
I would like to expose a question about a pendrive I have. this is somekind of strange I belive ... lol well, deep inside the memory there is some cylinders where is allocated some files that control the pen in windows... what this bring is so easy, not only slow very down he opening in windows as gets me some memory to. well, this sectors are read-only formated. What I would like to ask you, is if there is any way to make it writable and so configure it nicely with fdisk? This is a 1Gb pen drive, do you belive that could be possible install linux kernel in there? how many space could this call for? I belive this could be very intresting for recovering systems... what is your opinion? thanks Guilherme |
Are you referring to the small read-only partition thatsdetected in Windows as "U3 System"? If so I believe it's safe to remove it or format it.

but how can i do this if it is read-only?? thanks |
A little Google searching leads me to this from the macosx forums, but the information should be pretty much the same:
