I'm dual booting an HP lappy, but on one drive, I shrank the winderz partition down to 20 gigs & gave linux the rest. As for two drives, read all you can find on 'menu.lst' (everybody else) and 'grub.conf' and howto do that with two drives should become apparent. I was doing that with 2 drives on another box, but had to replace the mobo, and this new mobo somehow gets confused by having a slave drive on the primary cable, so that 2nd drive is now disconnected. Besides, 60GB is 10x more than enough for a milling machine. :) Hint, when it was working, I used only one /boot partition, and did all the tricks in the appropriate grub stanza. 2 bootable partitions also seems to confuse things no end. > Also, does Fedora have its own > Raid software? Dennis I believe the kernel has an 'md' module for that, but from recent discussions on lkml, it may not be 100% stable, so you may want to follow that thread for current advice.
