[HOW] Changing FC3 file system to accept longer file names?

[Jay Paulson]

The one that is giving me problems is 32 characters long.  I'm moving 
it from my Mac OSX machine to the FC3 machine.  I have no idea if the 
file system is fat/fat32/ext3 etc.  How do I find this out so I can let 
you know?

thanks,
jay
