Q. I have both linux and windows working perfectly, but i'm not able to use the partition created for linux in windows. Linux has no problems in recognizing windows file systems. So please find me a way.
A. generally windows doesn't support linux file system( ext2,ext3 ), but you may be able access using some software like "ext2fs". you can download it from the given link "http://www.fs-driver.org/download.html"
How do you determine what Linux file system your using?
Q. When you log onto a Linux system and get to the command prompt, how can you determine which of the many file systems supported in Linux you are using? Is there a command that will identify it?
A. Use fsck with the N option which just show what would have been done, but also show you what type of filesystem it is.
fsck -N /dev/(device-name)
e.g.
fsck -N /dev/hdc2
The 'mount' command wont help if the filesystem isn't mounted, and looking in /etc/fstab wont help because you cant be sure that information can be trusted.
fsck -N /dev/(device-name)
e.g.
fsck -N /dev/hdc2

Linux - File system structure between different distros?
Q. I have been reading about Linux distros and I am lost in that kind of "flavors".
Would someone help me understand the main differences in the file system structure in Fedora and how this is compared with the file system structure in Debian?

A. From an end-user perspective there really isn't much difference. Mostly the file system structure (do you mean layout?) is the same. For example, standard programs live in one or more of /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, and custom applications live in /usr/local/bin (but you don't need to worry about any of that, as the PATH variable manages finding them).
Debian-derived distributions provide for some configuration within the directory /etc/default/, and network interfaces are either configured in the file /etc/network/interfaces or by Network Manager.
RedHat-derived distributions (including Fedora) mostly use /etc/sysconfig/ for configuration files, and network interfaces are configured in separate files (one per interfaces) underneath /etc/sysconfig/interfaces/ or by Network Manager
Unless you're getting into writing portable installation scripts that's about as far as you really need to go.
