No, except for one thing. Live CDs like Knoppix and Morphix often probe for- and put icons on the desktop for- existing hard drive partitions.

So, leave the hard drive alone and you'll be fine :) AfC -- Andrew Frederick Cowie Operational Dynamics Consulting Pty Ltd Australia: +61 2 9977 6866 North America: +1 646 472 5054 http://www.operationaldynamics.com/ -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
