Well, I've played with this for way more than an hour already. Why not? The folks at linux-usb-devel (i.e., Alan Stern) also want me to recompile my linux kernel with usb-storage debugging on. So this could take a couple of days. Question about installation: I current have /boot, root, /home and swap partitions on my drive. The /home partition is very large, and I could make room for Solaris there. I see that Partition Magic 8 supports ext3 volumes (I have PM8). Do you know if this works? Can I resize the /home partition with PM8? Or is there a better way to do this under Linux? I take it you're recommending that I start with CD 1 and leave myself a single 3+GB partition?
