Hi All, I am planning on setting up a multi-boot system with 2 HD's. I _think_ I know what I want to do, but I would like to throw this out for some advice. I just bought this new DELL (3ghz, 512ram, 80gig HD, WinXP home). I also just bought another HD (160gig) which I want to add to the system. Here's my plan: I want to run XP and Win98se on the 80 and I want to run Fedora, SuSE, and Mandrake on the 160. I planed on giving the Linux distros each their own partition except for /Home and swap. If all share the home directory, will they play nice? Will all user data be accessible in all distros? Let's say I check my mail in SuSE, will I be able to read it if I boot into FEDORA? I would think yes if the same program is used in each distro and the login names are the same (this is only a guess)? Anyway, any advice would be appreciated. Thanks Russ
