I believe that you can do that. I'm not a pro at setting up Linux, but I just recently split my 5 gig hard drive and put linux on one of the partitions using FIPS. The drive that I split was also fat32, and I had no problem at all....that is if you use the newest FIPS program. I don't see why there would be a problem, but I'm just a beginner to Linux and still trying to get my Xwindows setup :(( ~chris d~ douglas moore <112020.3431@CompuServe.COM> wrote in message ... >I am planning on setting up linux on my current system... >i have two drives.
