I'm using kernel 2.0.31 with a patch for the vfat & it recognizes
win98 fat32 drives as read only.If you don't want to compile to 31
you can get a fat32.i boot image from the distro sites.I got mine from
the slack distro.Go to this page for updates etc about fat32 plus
patches http://bmrc.berkeley.edu/people/chaffee/fat32.html In win98
I'm using a small proggie called FSDEXT32 that allows me to read the
linux exfs2 from a win98 session http://www.globalxs.nl/home/p/pvs
As for zips I believe there is support but as I don't use I can't help
you there
Cheers
Steve
