Hello,

I managed to get a new hard disc for my MacBook, and got it to boot to the
OS X installer. Just restoring the system from a TimeMachine backup now
(this is taking 5hrs to restore ~150GB of data... ouch).

Since the new hdd is 500GB, I'm planning to dual boot OS X and Ubuntu. I'd
like a data partition that both OSes can access. It seems my choices are

* HFS+ with journaling disabled
* fat32

Which is the least worst? ;-)

Any other tips or things too look out for would be appreciated...

Thanks,
gavin,
