Hi,
What fdisk partition type I should choose if I want the partition to be formatted as NTFS under Windows?

Thank you.

P.S.: It might not belong in this forum, but I think it's the closest one, besides "Other things Gentoo", which it's not really belong.

P.P.S.: If I make a mistake, I apologize.

Select 07 (HPFS/NTFS) as partiton type, and you can format it in linux with mkntfs (sys-fs/ntfsprogs).
