It is "technically" possible, so long as you don't want to rely on that NTFS partition continuing to be usable next time you run XP. Microsoft doesn't release design information about NTFS, so what is put into the system is a "best guess" of what it expects, and some aspects still are known to *not* be known. Writing is not enabled by default for a *very good reason* as such. If you want to swap files, I'd recommend a vfat or FAT32 partition shared for "transit" purposes. -- Mark L.
