Hi lo2005,

Although I'm not experienced in doing this, I do point out that vfat is extremely slow, if not the slowest fs, for obvious reasons.

If you find out how to accomplish this before someone answers, please shout back!

I used mandrake 8.1 (lx4win installation) in past, and it was speed enough. It uses loop back root file system .but this installation(lx4win ) stooped in new mandrake 9.2 so I changed to Fedora .I tried to make root file system from my existing installation using help from this resource

http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Loopback-Root-FS.html

but I failed because it old information published in 1999 for kernel 2.0 or 2.2.
Can any one give us a full detailed explanation how to make loop back file system for fedora core1?
