Thank you, Ray. That is a very respectable, informed response. I'm not sure Lizard is going to care about the other FS, so long as you don't tell Lizard to manipulated it at all. Lizard won't care what filesystem is on it, so long as it can make sense enough of the Partition Type setting to rewrite it when it updates the partition table for the ext2 partition. And I would bet that he should at least be able to use the SVGA X-Server.
That said, he is most definitely best off to grab the latest ISO for 3.1.1 and install it. Most of the the software that is included on the eD2.4 cd's should still work on 3.1.1. Just install the RPM's and go. I'm running Cheops network analysis software on 3.1.1 that came on the eServer 2.3 cd.
