Latest Ubuntu allow to make NTFS partition?

Asked by Milardo

Does latest Ubuntu version allow to make NTFS partition? I thought I read somewhere that it can, but when installing 64 bit version I don't see the option when creating partition.

Hi !

yes you can create an ntfs partition using gparted. But why would you want to to that ? you can use ext2fsd to read ext3 partitions from windows

What is gparted? I like ntfs partition. Where is the option when I am installing ubuntu for ntfs?

gparted is the gnome partition manager. you will find it under applications>system->gparted

I don't really understand why you prefer to use microsoft file system, but do as you want :-)

Can you help with this problem?
