You can't go wrong with FAT. If you need more advanced semantics, you may want to go in a different direction. In any case, I believe all of those support the "VFAT" stuff or whatever it was called... Long file names, long hierarchies, big filesystems. You'll even find that FAT mostly works on old Solaris, HP-UX, IRIX, ... systems, too. If linux has HFS support, that is an option you might want to consider. Native on Mac, there's some relatively readily available HFS things for Windows (depending on your needs and use methods, of course), and so on.
