I have deleted the OP, so I may not remember exactly what [s]he is looking for, but if it is just to have some common space that each OS can read/write, but not necessarily boot from eg each OS has its own bootable disk space and this is just used between then, then maybe FAT32 might do the trick. It doesn't preserve some of the UNIX ownership and permission stuff though. ////jerry
