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?
