Hi,
I have a notebook w/ Win8.1 installed, and Linux alongside it in it's own partition.(duh)
The thing is, I don't want the Windows system to be able to put crap on the Linux partition. I'd like to set the Linux partition as read-only for Windows so Windows can't put stuff on it, but that it is still readable. Linux on the other hand, should be able to access all the partitions. Is this possible?
It would be great if it is, because Windows start polluting this partition as soon as I create it...
The best would be if I (easily)could set and unset the read-only option for this partition, so it is possible to access the partition quickly if necessary.
Unfortunately, just simply checking the read-box and unchecking all the other boxes in proprties->security->SYSTEM of the partition doesn't do the trick, it seems.
Thanks in advance for all the help!
