Just tried this and it seems to work pretty well. A cross-platform (Linux + Windows) would be nice but file system limitations are probably somewhat of an issue unless the partition is in ext2 or ext3 I guess.

I thought many linux distros had no problems with NTFS anymore...is this not the case? At the least you should be able to read from NTFS, even if you can't write to it within linux. Maybe there's a filesystem plugin that allows XP to read ext2/3 partitions within windows explorer...or something of that sort?

<--- hasn't toyed with linux in a long time.

Anyway, MS synctoy is awesome for this kind of thing.
