I would like to figure out how to prevent Windows installation routine such that it doesn't check that the file system is NTFS. Can anyone help?

It has to know what kind of file system your computer is using. How on earth do you expect it to install the os without that knowledge? If your intent is to duel boot then you have to first install MS-Windows then the other operating system(s).
