Hello List, I'm planning to put a Debian SMP system together for the new Vn of the 3d s/w I use. The primary installation will be potato but I'd also like to be able to run the new unstable. What I'd like to do is to have three installations:- 1 x potato, that I know will always work, and two for unstable, so I can revert _and_ maintain a working system. The 3d package footprint won't be too large so I can install it on each system but the associated data does take up a lot of space and I don't want to duplicate it anyway. It would seem possible for me to put all this data on it's own partition and then get it mounted on each system, but I was wondering if there could be any permissions conflicts between the systems. Obviously, I'll maintain the same users on each system (just me and a guest account) but I don't know if this will be enough - I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't. On the other hand, I might be worrying about nothing.
Any advice welcome. Bye, LeeE -- http://www.spatial.freeserve.co.uk ...or something.
