Hmm. So, maybe I should try Linux as the host operating system, not Windows. With a bit of foresight, I actually left two physical partitions empty on my boot drive to contain a Linux filesystem and swap. I just need to find the time and the courage to do the installation (courage because I don't want to lose the ability to boot my Windows installations).
Do the backups anyway, but don't worry too much. Linux installers play well with others. I have Fedora 9 dual-booted with Windows on my box at home. It would have been F10, but I've read that the F10 installer is a horror: a horror to users. So far as I know, it won't destroy partitions you don't tell it to. -- Michael [email protected] "Pessimist: The glass is half empty. Optimist: The glass is half full.
