Create HFS+ and FAT32 partitions on one external drive.
Authored by: hamarkus on Feb 16, '05 05:09:42PM

Could you not achieve a similar result by formatting the drive as FAT32* and creating a sparse disk image with OS X on it? It would be like having two partitions whose sizes adjust automatically. Mounting may take a little bit and I don't know whether you could boot of it but otherwise I can see no drawbacks.

* If your drive is bigger than the purported size limit of 127 GB, you will have to create more than one partition.
