Fsck returned that the drive was "good", but I still had the
undeletable corrupted data. Since I got most of my files backed up
off of it (I was filling it with music for a day trip), I'm not too
worried about loosing data.

Another question, unrelated to the thumbdrive - I just got a new mobo
on loan until I can buy my own. Since the new mobo means that I have
to reinstall my OS's (I dual-boot with Windows and Linux), I'm curious
as to any suggestions on how I should partition my Linux directory to
make reinstalls easier in the future. I've got 13gb set aside just
for the OS (already have a swap partition and /home on another drive),
so any suggestions would be appreciated, since I know in a few months
I'm going to be doing this again.
