Question
I have a dual boot system - Win XP Pro and Kubuntu Linux. I set the XP file system as FAT32 but I was hoping to be able to read the data on the Linux partition when I'm booted into Windows. How do I set this up? (GRUB is boot loader.)

XP doesn't have support for any linux file system. There are a few open source drivers that MAY work SOMEWHAT, but your best bet is to put files on a FAT32 partition in linux and access them from windows that way.

Of course, if you're not using Ext2/Ext3 and are using a reiser file system or another file system, then you really might be out of luck (I've not heard of any windows driver for those file systems).
