Just about any Linux filesystem is superior to FAT or NTFS, but I recommend ReiserFS for general purpose usage. It's fast, solid, and flexible. For a typical single-partition setup you want to make a root partition '
/' and a swap partition which is equal the amount of RAM you have. Feel free to post in our Linux forum if you have any more questions about Linux.
All the best,
