Hi,

If I wanna use the ntfs filesystem for my ce device, how can I configure the
os?
The ntfs can be used for all media such as nand(nor) flash, cf, dom, hdd?

Hi Walter
Due to some posts in thes newsgroup the wear leveling is supported by
the FAL.
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windowsce.platbuilder/browse_frm/thread/4f100accf4c5aada/83916c07ecc2b3ab?lnk=gst&q=wear+leveling&rnum=1&hl=de#83916c07ecc2b3ab

But since it is nowhere documented officially, I have some doupts in
its reliability.
For shure I think there is a basic wear levelling support, but you
maybe can't totally rely on it.
(whyelse should MS keep silent about such an important feature,
especially in the embedded area)

Sure you can rely on it. Your conclusion is a non-sequitor. MS is not silent
on the matter, they document that the FAL performs the wear leveling. They
also document that NTFS is not supported. I'd have to ask WHY would you want
NTFS on CE? NTFS is a big beast that contains a HUGE number of features and
functionality not available on CE systems.
