OK.. I'm going to put Linux on the 2nd (D

partition of the array. It's 7 gigabytes of nekkid space. I think with the instructions above - Thanks Jim - I can get it there. I'm going to give it the whole 7gig. Are there any changes to what you've already posted?
At this point, I'm a little worried about printing. I have an old HP 5P laser printer and a 952C Deskjet on an HP DirectJet print server. I hope I can get this to work with Linux.
btw: the download (both disk .iso's at the same time) went as smooth as I could expect... about 6 hours using the program "Download Mage", which I switched to from Gozilla about a month ago. I love it.
