Time Machine tells me, of a working partition, 'reformat required (incompatible file system'. Why would it say that?
I have 2 partitions on my hard disk, but only recently started using the 2nd. It behaves normally--but Time Machine
refuses to back it up, claiming that it has an 'imcompatible file system', and wants to reformat the partition. Granted,
named the partition 'LINO' in anticipation using it to experiment with Ubuntu, but never succeeded in persuading
Snow Leopard to read an Ubunto .dmg or thumb drive. (I deduce that Snow Leopards do not like the fishy taste of
penguins.) Ubuntu and LINO never met, and LINO is used without demur by Snow Leopard. What is going on?
