Re: [newbie] New install on second hd -- advice please.

I dedicated Mandrake to the second hard disk all to itself, 
and partitioned that same dedicated hard drive into 2 parts, for Linux and swap 
respectively. Use the DiskDruid software that's available during the 
installation and it works perfectly. Well, did for me anyway! LILO puts its info 
in the boot record of your choice (1st or second HD)

  Subject: [newbie] New install on second 
  hd -- advice please.
  
  Hello,
  I am trying to install MDK 6.0 on second hard 
  drive. It is a Western Digital 6.4 Gig hd. The first hard drive is a Maxtor 
  4.2 Gig. Does part of MDK 6.0 have to be on first drive? I have Partion Magic 
  4.01 so moving partions around is easy enough, it also comes with BootMagic. I 
  could use BootMagic or LILO as OS loader.
  Currently have 1st drive partioned c: and d: with 
  Win98. I have second drive as one partion as yet I will make at least these 
  partions / , /home , and /swap. Any others I should make? Which partion set as 
  active? Primary or logical?
  If there is a How to could someone point me the 
  way?
  
  Any advice greatly appreciated.
  
  TIA

  The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.solberg.com', 
  Server: 'mail.solberg.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket 
  Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
  
  Maybe your server doesn't support SSL email? Mine doesn't so 
  I had to make sure to turn that option off.

 I may know some about Windoze - and rather more about Amigas, but zero
about
 linux! ;-)

Yeah, I'm not so diligent with the command line tar myself either. And I've
got an A1200 not getting as much attention heh. If you got KDE running, it's
got an 'archiver' program that almost works like Dopus Magellan on the
Amiga. A nice mouse driven archiver for tar. It's the only one I use for
Linux compression work.
