Well, I would try to put the 8.1 and 8.2 Beta on the Maxtor
excuse me for needing clarification, but after reading the install testing page I'm still somewhat in the dark. Is it as simple as doing an expert install and adding a / , and home to the maxtor drive with the install cd of 8.1 or 8.2? do I share the swap or the /boot partitions on the wd hdc ? or should I put a swap on the maxtor as well and keep the new os completely separate? On the WDs, minimize the use of linux--they are at their best with the > windows drivers they offer to compensate for their lack of hardware and > they officially do not support the use of linux on their drives. would it be best to redo all this and move the /backup off the maxtor and reinstall linux exclusively to the maxtor drive later using a wd for /backup? > With /boot on other than the primary drive, use GRUB instead of LILO. > What is the advantage here ? says to use lilo on page. > DO NOT, not even in an air raid, make a RAID of any description of /. > You will be unable to update with the install CDs. > I simply don't understand what you are saying here. > check the appendix of Did don't have those partitions now. must I add them or reinstall? Hope I'm not a pest, it's just I am obviously not up enough to understand this without a little more explaination. Thanks again Mike
