Steven (et al),
it depends what you want to run, but so far as I know, Linux
does not support NTFS. If you're booting via Milo (and I sincerely
hope that you are and you don't want to flash it, then you could use
a small FAT partition to hold ARC loadable Milo and then have the
rest as EXT2 (plus a swap obviously). I'm in the middle of adding
in more file systems into Milo, DOS is on the list, but iso9660 is
first. I'd use the same model as for Intel, make a seperate
partition for Linux (ext2) and co-exist with Windows NT if you want/need
to run it.
