Message-ID: <000501c269e8$b8ca73c0$af33f7c2@gcb> (raw)
I have a dual-boot Linux system. Debian 3.0 (Woody), and SuSE 8.0 (Prof).,
on separate drives sharing a common machine (Pentium III at 600 MHz).
Both work well, and I am enjoying learning the differences between them,
running
them as separate alternatives.
Would it be inadvisable to have a third hard disk drive on the same shared
machine,
which is mountable on either distro, in order to enable files from (say)
Debian to be transfered
into SuSE, (or vice-vers) or would I be asking for trouble ?
Can I use a common device (say) /dev/hdc as a common part of two
partition systems ?
A possible use would be to YaST/ RPM into Debian, or APT/ DEB into SuSE.
Best regards,
Geoff Bagley
G3FHL.
