So I just installed netatalk through cydia, and I'm planning to use my iPhone as a wireless external harddrive for some graphic design work I do on a mac. My question is, does it matter where I create a folder for my personal file storage? Just to keep things simple, I used finder to create a folder titled "_Storage" under the home directory after logging in as "mobile" (this also seems to be the "User" folder under "root"). Is it fine to create a new folder for my file storage here (or anywhere else, for that matter), or are there only specific places where it's fine create new folders and drag and drop stuff? I want to make sure I'm not doing anything that could cause iTunes to not recognize my iPhone or require an annoying restore.

Thanks.
 
Thanks, I'm just uber-paranoid about messing around in the iPhone file system. I haven't done anything yet to require a restore, knock on wood, and I'm hoping to avoid the trouble.
