Ubuntu can write to NTFS, you just need to be root to do it..

sudo cp whateverfile.lol /media/whateveryourxppartitionismountedas/whateverfile.lol

Edit: Oh, and the password is whatever your user account password is.. just in case. lol

It won't install to those file systems, but writing to them is certainly possible, I do it all the time.
