As others have mentioned you can read from an NTFS partition but not write (at least not without serious risk of data corruption)
Another way to look at it is to ask can I see a Linux ext2(3) partition from WinXP? The answer is yes to both read and write. The Filesystems HOWTO is a great source of information on accessing different filesystems from many kinds of OS. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Filesystems-HOWTO.html Kerry.
