[MacPerl-Forum] MacPerl Forum - partitioning hard drive for MacOS & linuxppc

[Elton Hughes <ehughes@novapic.org>]

Hello All,

I am thinking about installing linuxppc on my G3 Mac. My Mac is primarily 
a test and development system. Production is on another machine.

I have a question about partitioning my hard drive. I want to partition 
so that both MacOS and linuxppc are on the same hd. At a minimum I think 
I need three partitions. One for the MacOS, another for swap and a third 
for root. Has anyone used a different partition scheme? What are your 
experiences and suggestions?

I have a 4gig hd. I was thinking of using 2.5 for the MacOS, 50mb for 
swap and the remainder for linuxppc. Sound good? Yes, no, maybe?

Thank you for your time.

Elton
