I plan to add LM8.2 to my system and keep LM8.0 for daily use until I'm sure
everything works. My LM 8.0 is on hda a 20 gig hd) and I use LILO to boot. I plan to
purchase a new 40 gig hd, and devote that entirely to LM8.2. -- the new drive would be
hdc.
My questions:
Preserving the setup, 8.0 on hda, and 8.2 on hdc:
1. Will I be able to boot into hdc using the present LILO setup?
2. I want to use XFS with 8.2; presently 8.0 uses ext2. Can I mix&match?
3. Can I use GRUB with 8.2 and LILO with 8.0 (would this "break" something?)
Changing the setup:
1. If I move hda to become hdc, will this mess up LILO? (That is, if I make
LM 8.0 the secondary drive (hdc), and use the new drive as hda). I don't
want to take a chance on losing data.
I hope that the above is not too confusing -- Any suggestions or warnings?
Tia,
Andre
