WUBI makes a single big file and formats it with a Linux filesystem. `umsdos` kept Linux files as DOS files directly in the FAT16 filesystem, with a hidden file in each directory containing additional Linux metadata. No Linux filesystem anywhere. You could even run a DOS defragger and your Linux would survive. :-) I used a distro called Pygmy Linux that worked this way.
