Well if this is so, how come that I have a 6 Gb LaCie CarteOrange 
(USB2) that I can happily access, read and write to and delete from?
Everything is showed in a filer window.

What happens though is that on a WinXP it says it's FAT32 and it's 
size is 5,57 Gb and it has 1,77 Gb available, but on the Iyonix it's 
size is 1622MBytes and Free and Used present questionmarks.

BTW even with USB2 on Iyonix it is very, very slow compared to the 
WinXP machine.
