why do you need to access the /home partition when using winxp?
ntfs doesn't support POXIS file ownership and permissions natively. so
keep you /home partition to a linux filesystem.
you can have a separate storage partition for shared documents and
files, mount it to the /home hierarchy or somewhere else, and access
it with each of your installed os.
btw, what's keeping you from moving your winxp into virtualization?
