Is there a way to make a dual-OS (Linux and Windows) Calibre portable thumbdrive/external_HDD?
The thumbdrive would need to be formatted with a filesystem both OS'es would work with - probably NTFS since Linux understands NTFS better than Windows understands EXT4. I know the instructions at the top of this thread say a Linux filesystem must be used, but I was wondering if thoughts on that had changed since those instructions were written two years ago.
I am fine with a traditional Linux-only portable installation. But I was thinking of adding Windows to the mix in case other members of my family (who don't use Linux like I do) might want to plug this portable installation into one of their Windows computers and use it.
I was thinking of a directory structure like the attached screenshot, which makes things pretty clear about what is what to someone not familiar with the portable installation.
