I have PostgreSQL 9.4 installed on a dual-boot machine (both on Win 7 and Ubuntu 14.10). The two systems share a drive which includes a PSQL database directory which was created under Windows. Obviously the PSQL installations are system-specific, and they also happen to be on different partitions. The drive is automatically mounted under Linux and given full read/write/execute access.

I would like to know if it is possible to share the structure and data between the two systems without duplicating and/or having to copy everything each time I load a new OS. Effectively, I would like all the data to be available to Ubuntu when it is created in Windows, and vice versa.

Is this possible, and if so, how would one set this up from Linux assuming all the data was originally generated under Windows?
