[MINC-users] tpb1@ualberta.ca (Thomas Bouchard): Error saving mnc but not tag labels

[Andrew Janke]

Hi Thomas,

This is indeed most interesting,   I am guessing that you are running
some linux variant (Ubuntu? -- given the /media path) and that the
external disk is FAT32?

Does it work if you save the .tag file to /tmp/fred.tag ?
