Thanks for the reply, longpanda
Yes, i've read that info. That reserved partition can definitely be helpful, but you will be limited by that partition size. If you need to backup fast something that is bigger than that partition... would be much more convenient to have access to the whole first partition, and in case you need more space for your stuff, just delete those ISOs you don't need right now or while you don't need any spare space for personal files, have the whole drive for ISOs. Just in worst case scenario, a small extra partition to where the ISO is "auto copied" before mounting could work? Will be pretty slow on USB2 devices but still...
