I want to install SuSE 10 on a computer with Windows XP already
installed. I'd like to set up a partition that is readable and
writeable-to by both Linux and Windows for documents I need to save and
work on in both formats. How could I accomplish this without having to
become root in order to access the partition?

Thanks
