While you're at it, you should consider partitioning your system for production and testing. I use a 1GB /boot partition and have 4 separate 25GB partitions for system files. The remainder of my drive is data. Each 25GB partition has a different OS depending on what I'm testing. My primary production system is Fedora 12 at the moment, but I transitioned to that via Fedora 10, then 11. I have two other partitions dedicated to trying out the debian based distros Ubuntu and 64Studio. The advantage to this is you never have to break your production system if you want to test something new. Just install to one of the scratch partitions and add an entry to your boot loader. When you're ready to upgrade (like I did for 3 versions worth of Fedora) you just rsync your active system partition to a scratch partition and perform the upgrade there to test it without screwing up your production system. Keep in mind some distros use different versions of Grub, but ultimately they are compatible because Grub rules. -Scott _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
