Are there any distros that can read NTFS formatted partitions? I'm planning on dual booting between windows and linux now that I have my computer built, and I want both OSes to be able to access the one big partition. This is how I have my partitions set up if that helps:
C:\ - System Primary drive (20 gb) <--- the partition that I currently have windows on D:\ - Logical Unformatted (4 gb) <--- the partition that I plan on installing linux to E:\ - Logical Unformatted <--- (125 gb) <--- the data partition that I want both OSes to be able to access. So, yeah, if anyone with experience in this stuff *cough*mipadi*cough* could help me out, that would be great, mmmmkay? |

Are you going to format D: to ext3 when installing Linux? Also, is this a single disk, or multiple disks?
