Hi Klaas,
Thanks for your very fast reply.
NTFS partition sharing is not so adventurous than that if you take some
precautions. For example
not reboot under Linux after a Windows hibernation... But I am OK with you,
it's not perfect but
it's just the easiest and only way that I found to preserve disk space!
As soon as possible I try to log the sync events when I switch between the
two systems and I
tell you.
Thanks again for your help,
Regards,
Hervé
