i *think* it defaults to NTFS if you are installing from scratch (no
partitions/filesystems created) and defaults to whatever the pre-existing
filesystem is (FAT or NTFS) if you are upgrading or installing on a box w/
partitions/filesystems already created...

ooo, that'd be kinda kewl, but i'd prefer being able to read/write NTFS
5.1 from linux first...  i'm not the biggest fan of FAT32, but i have to
have a partition that both linux/win can read/write to for my mp3/divx
partition! ; ^ )
