I thought you had export as a separate partition because it was going
to be (or was) formatted in a manner that allowed it to be shared with
Windows on the same host?

Then again I haven't been paying that much attention, as usual!


... or found an valid alternative to what I thought I wrote :-( The use of the name "export" was to indicate it was to be accessed via a network (both here and as a reminder for me). I also omitted to mention the presence of a vfat partition on sdb, which is used by both systems.
