However, I want to store all of the data (email, calender, etc) on a different partition by making a symbolic link between the .evolution directory and target directory; the target directory is on a FAT32 partition. Here the trouble starts. After I imported all the Sylpheed emails (MH directory) into a temporary account, I cannot move the emails between these accounts. The complaint is that it timed out creating a lock file. Any suggestions?
yepp - do not use fat32. ;-) i guess it's related to the fact that fat filesystems don't really have permissions. when you mount a fat partition, all the files are given the *same* file permissions at mount time. furthermore, once mounted, those permissions cannot be modified. i guess it has something to do with that. cheers, andre -- mailto:ak-47 gmx net | failed! http://www.iomc.de
