Can you advise me what how to proced before that all be destroyed yet. Y have now : primary master : hda3 ext2 ; hda2 swap ; hda1 boot (linux) slave : hdb1 ext2 (dd added) (linux) secondary master : hdc1 (other OS) My questions : Q1. Is it possible to mount hdb1 for example in /usr/local and to use /usr/local as befor i.e.put the source of soft and compile it as usual ? In this case is the new line in fstab suitable ? : /dev/hdb1 /usr/local ext2 defaults,user 0 2 I am not sure for the fields <option> <dump> <pass> ? Q2. Is it possible to use hdb1 like the extension of hda3 i.e. when hda3 is full the new package.deb will be installed automatically on hdb1 ? Thanks in advance for your advices. Gerard.
