This depends on how much disk spaces you have. If you do not install X programs, 500MB is sufficient for Linux. I would rather make 500MB worth extra space by reorganizing current system and do not erase at all. Then play with new FS and make sure it works. Dual/triple boot system is the way to test new system. (I am not skilled enough to do chroot. :-) If you need to do major reorganization involving root, booting with single floppy Linux and mounting HD may be a way to avoid problem you listed. -- ~\^o^/~~~ ~\^.^/~~~ ~\^*^/~~~ ~\^_^/~~~ ~\^+^/~~~ ~\^:^/~~~ ~\^v^/~~~ + Osamu Aoki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, GnuPG-key: 1024D/D5DE453D + + My debian quick-reference, http://www.aokiconsulting.com/quick/ +
