Comments

Did you get an answer? |
@xAffan no updates on my end |
Windows just supports FAT*, NTFS, UDF and (maybe) ReFS. |
@mirh exactly like you said, because Microsoft has pivoted towards Linux support/integration over the last several years, and I anticipate they will continue to do so moving forwards. After acquiring GitHub, the company has taken great steps to support the Open Source community, and I think this is a direction they will remain on as long as the current CEO remains in the chair :) |
Hello! HDD 120GB = 2 GB FAT16 + 109,6 GB EXT4 base partition; Can you help me? |
Don't you also have to mod winload to be able to load new file system drivers? |
Hey, I just found this project today and it works perfectly for the use case I was going for! Great work maintaining this, and obviously props to the original creator @matt-wu.
Out of curiosity, do you know why this hasn't been picked up for official native Windows support yet? I know it's a fairly niche use case, but I can't think of any downsides to adding in
ext
partition support, since the driver already exists and having it picked up formally would allow them to flesh it out as they see fit and maybe solve the few existing problems the community has identified.If you don't know, I could try reaching out to some friends in the industry to see if they can get a more concrete answer, this just seems like a huge missed opportunity on their part IMO. Cheers!
