Hi- I am still interested in any comments but I have found a R-O solution from windows at http://p-nand-q.com/download/rfstool.html (SUSE 10.0 has a R-O solution builtin) Bob -----Original Message----- From: bob sandefur [mailto:rsandefur@cam-llc.com] Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2005 06:37 To: suse-amd64@suse.com Subject: [suse-amd64] read write sharing files between XP pro ntfs compressed and SUSE 10.0 on dual boot machine Hi- I would like to have the ability to share files between XP-64 and suse10.0 x86-64 on the same dual boot machine and I though I could do this with ReiserFS on SUSE 10 using Paragon ntfs for linux( http://www.ntfs-linux.com/ but it won't install on 10.0 and I can't find a way to mount reiserFS on XP. I am addicted to NTFS compressed so fat32 is not a option so I guess the solution is to install 10.0 with ext3 instead of reiser as there seem to be lots of ext3 read write options from XP. Questions Any other ideas before I reinstall 10.0? Is reiser better than ext3? (If no why is it the suse default?) Thanx Robert (Bob) L.
