Logical Disk Manager is Windows' dynamic disk management system which allows for disk volumes to span multiple partitions, even across multiple physical disks. Linux won't readily read an LDM volume.

For a dual boot system sharing files, the shared files needs to be on a file system both OS understand.

Thank you for explanation. What would you suggest? Data partition is now NTFS, what shall I format it into?

Hi everyone
I am quite fresh at Linux. I have dual boot win+Lin and two partitions: windows + programs and Linux installation along and another data partition. The problem is that Data partition is not visible in File manager. I can see windows and other programs, but data is not visible. In partition manager it says 1TB Data, unknown.
