[newbie] Mandrake PPC question

[okamoto]

Hello all,

I'm considering either Mandrake 8.2 or YDL 2.2, and am hoping someone here
can help with some questions.

On YDL's web site, they suggest placing Linux and Mac OS 9 on separate disks,
and making the drive with YDL the master on the IDE bus.

Is this also recommended for Mandrake?

Also, although I can access the Mac drives from Linux, is the reverse true?
If I'm booted in OS 9, can I access the Linux partition(s)?

Thanks much,
Jeff

 What mac system and hardware are you running?

A blue/white G3 currently, but I may trade up to a G4 since my G3 has the
Rev 1 IDE chip and can't support a 2nd drive on the internal IDE bus.
I can't use an IDE card, because I wouldn't be able to boot from the drive
connected to it.
