    format to ext2

    Hey.

    I just got myself the wl500gP, im using the original firmware on it.
    I also bought a WD 500GB external hdd not long ago, and was looking forward to use it with the router. But its formated with ntfs. i dont want to use FAT32 as i will download files that are larger than 2GB. So my question is, can i format it to ext2 in windows? or with any thirdparty program in windows?

    Format to ext2

    Try using "Partition Magic".
    Works good bij me.
