[SOLVED] Windows and Arch dualboot *

Hello.

I have a question about configuring partitions in the Arch installer. It says raw_fs, I know this is because there is no support for ntfs in the installer. If I edit an empty entry in a partition table, will it then set all NTFS partitions as raw, or will it preserve ntfs and leave it be?

I believe it will preserve, although somebody will need to double-check that.

The installer will not touch the partitions not used during install.

The installer only formats partitions you explicitly tell it to format, so your windows will be fine
