Thanks. I'll do just that. I had wanted linux on the master drive because I
really intend to eventually be rid of Windows. Guess I looked way too far
ahead there. I may not be ready to be free from Windows until a year or so
[but I hope I'm wrong.]
Thanks also to Sridhar Dhanapalan, Paul and Ed Tharp. I've finally made up
