[QUOTE="kaizersozay, post: 1372221, member: 216190"] Hi folks - I want to install bootcamp (lion based) to have a native Windows 7 install on my Mac. I've done this once on a different Mac recently, so familiar with how to setup partitioning etc. However, I have 100gb of documents, music, photos etc I want to share both when booting Mac or Windows. It seems like I need to have this in the Windows ntfs partition as Lion can see the volume - however, I was told this would be read only for the Lion boot. I've been told there is a few command lines or something that can make the NTFS volume read-write while booted in Lion. I did some searches and read the FAQs and bootcamp docs, but don't see anywhere how to do this. This must be something folks ask for often? Any link to a thread or 'how to' would be great. Thanks [/QUOTE]
