partitions: _________ what i did ~ _________ HDA1 about 100 mb for /boot [after installs i used grub/or, lilo, to boot all systems] HDA2 about 2500 mb for Windows HDA3 about 1000 mb for Linux Swap [ put swap as sandwich between Windows and Linux, because Windows formatting does not always respect 'boundaries'] HDA5 Linux system about 15 gigs HDA6 Linux system about 15 gigs [ 1st backup of whole system ] HDA7 Linux system about 15 gigs [ 2nd backup of whole system ] YMMV best rgds __________
