| partitioning If you are installing Linux on a clean drive or empty partition, Ext3 is the way to go. It has its own journaling system. Remember that you need 3rd party tools for XP to read your ext3 filesystem. Linux will read/write fat32 and will read (not write) NTFS (there are tools for writing to ntfs) |
