There was an interesting discussion on this issue on the kernel mailing
list:
http://kt.linuxcare.com/kernel-traffic/kt20001225_99.epl#5
Because of changes that Microsoft is making to NTFS in W2K and Whistler,
you seem to be better off using a shared VFAT partition, even for read-only.
The inclination among kernel developers tended toward removing NTFS
support from the mainstream kernel entirely.
