Re: Debian w/ Win95?
I have Debian and Winbloze on my 2.0 gig hd just fine. The only problem
is, Winbloze will not see any partition that is not it's own format. When
you format a partition for linux, you will lose sight of that partition in
Win95. Linux, on the other hand, can see all partitions, so you can still
copy files between the two paritions. Debian will run on either drive,
but it might be easier to put it on a second since you'd have to reformat
your 4.3 inorder to partition it.
