Hello to all, I have a dual boot Debian Sarge/Win 2K box.
The 2K has been broken for some time but is no loss as I have another machine for the few remaining tasks, some games for me and for the convenience of other family members who are more comfortable with Windows. I have long since removed the Win 2K from the boot menu. I would now like to remove the 2K partition to regain the space for use for MP3s. Would I be able to have a second "home" so it will not be wiped if I need to re-install at some time, say when I break my machine upgrading to Etch later this year :) I have looked at the partitions with live cds (Knoppix and similar) and have burned the few things that mattered from 2K. I have also a qtparted live cd to hand. So to the questions, 1) How to remove? 2) What to name it to survive a re-install? 3) Is it possible to have a second home? 4) How could I have found the answer myself in the Debian archives to save asking here? 5) And Is there a tutorial on looking this kind of thing up in say Google Groups? Thanks for any replies to any part of the questions. Kind Regards, Del. -- D. M.
