Re: Ready to join the club..
yep you should be fine... just remember if you ever nuke your debian
install your bootloader will no longer work (or maybe its just that it
wont find its menu.lst file, can't remember as its been awhile since I
goofed up and did that) since thats where it stores the grub files (even
though grub will be initiated on the MBR of the primary drive)
