I tried this with calibre installed on Windows 11 and several Linux installs on VM Workstation with the calibre test library in a shared folder. While I did not get the Disk I/O errors, after several sequential sessions between Windows and the Linux VMs, the library was munged. If I did a 2-way sync between shared folder and the Linux VMs's local copies of the library, again the library in the shared directory got munged though it seemed to take longer and needed more disk space. A 1-way sync worked but was rather useless since only the changes I made in Windows got synced to the Linux VMs and the changes made in the Linux VMs were not propagated.
