grub and partition

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm going to be repartitioning, so just thought I'd run things by y'all, 
generally.  About ten gigs of fat32 for win2k?  I don't want to muck with 
ntfs read/write, although I understand that it's gotten better recently.  
As I rarely use windows I want to keep the space it uses to a minimum.  
I'd like clean install win2k to the slave partition (where it is now) 
but, of course, that's not an option.  So, I'll give windows about ten 
gigs on the master hdd.

Then, Fedora.  I figure that I'll just let it do its automagical stuff in 
anaconda because I'm primarily upgrading to try getting my Samsung 
ML-2510 printer going.

However, down the road I'd like to separate, if I understand correctly, 
the /home out so that my various settings carry over when I upgrade to 
Fedora 8.  yes?  However, that's not something I want to muck with at 
this particular moment.

Oh, just had a though.  maybe, if the stars align, the printer will work 
with the live cd.  I won't hold my breath for that, though.

I'm considering installing FC3 because the samsung printer box says that 
it works with FC3.  Or, how about running it in emulation?  That wouldn't 
help, would it?  (using USB cable.)


rainy sunday stuff :)
