Having Ext3 and NTFS on the same physical Hard Disk
Hi,

Just a quick question. I am planning to

1. format my Laptop (40 GB HDD)
2. create two partitions 20 GB and 20 GB
3. install Windows XP in one partition formatting it as NTFS
4. install Fedora Core 3 in the other partition formatting it as ext3

Wondering if this is a bad idea to have two entirely different filesystems in the same physical hard disk? My mind is telling me it's not.

Thanks,
McoreD
