    You're stuck with NTFS for the windows install so linux will have access.

    For the linux side:
    • An ext2 or ext3 system for the linux install will let you set up windows to read/write through a few third-party drivers of varying quality.
    • If you want to give windows read-only access to linux an ext4 partition is supported for reads with the same drivers as above for now.
    • If you want to cut windows off from the linux install go with btrfs or xfs or resierfs or the like.
