This may not be of much use to those of you who dread text based installs, and those in the know, but a bit of useful information I came across when I installed Red Hat Linux 9 recently.

Yes, NTFS throws a spanner into the works, but I don't do NTFS anymore. I am prepared to pay a little performance penalty for that, but FAT32 enables me to use all my hard drives with Linux and Windows without any problems at all. I would like to switch my "Data" partition to something else, but would still like it accessible from DOS for when I have to ghost from a diskette. So FAT32 for now I guess.
I am glad people some people found the article helpful. I also got this information from others so I am just passing it along "The Linux Way".
