    Because I can't get Linpus to access shared folders on my network and the instructions supplied on this forums don't seem to work for me, I would like to try an install of XP, which means formatting the ssd to FAT32. I expect I will be reinstalling Linpus later on so, will the Linpus recovery USB key i'll have made beforehand be able to reformat the ssd back to the Linux file system? - or will I have f*d the drive for ever?

    Cheers

    A restore of Linpus will leave your system just like the day you first unpacked it.

    Cheers.
