How does this work for a dual-boot system if that partition is NTFS (like my setup)? If I understand correctly, it isn't possible to (safely) write to an NTFS partition under Linux. Ideally I would have another file server machine running Samba, but that isn't currently feasible. This little conundrum means I can basically only use BitTorrent under Windows (or Linux if I had made the 200GB media drive ext3 or something non-NTFS.) Am I correct in thinking there isn't a viable solution to this other than making the NTFS partition a VFAT one instead?
