linux has many file systems, used ext4. have read can install ext4 reader module in windows, seems unstable. linux has no problem reading ntfs, ntfs doesn't support features linux needs operate. internal linux files , configuration files can't on ntfs.
2. i'm planning install ubuntu alongside windows. far know linux file system should ext3. in ubuntu site went through installation instructions. has given nothing changing file system of drive linux installed ext3. can directly install ubuntu on ntfs? or automatically change format ntfs ext3? or ubuntu can installed on ntfs. , other flavours of linux require ext3 file system. if ubuntu can installed on ntfs install on ext3 file system or create problems. pleae explaiin clearly. if have not asked let me know.
when install ubuntu, given options:
  • use entire disk: erase windows , partition ext4
  • next current os: shrink windows ntfs , make new ext4 partition
  • manually: self: shrink or delete partitions, create new ones ... (only advised if have done partitioning before)

3.can linux read flash drives or external hard drives directly or compulsory install ntfs drivers it. how do it.

linux can read lot of file systems. has problems filesystems used apple. drivers ntfs , fat32 included in kernel.

final note: desktop linux systems offer same functionality different filesystems. there linux variants (like android, meego, webos ...) aren't build computers , don't offer support. result, can't "all linux".
