Subject:	SCOUG-Help: multipole OS'es / advice & guidance sought

Content Type: text/plain

Hello SCOUGians
After long silence I am back again and hope for your help.

I am changing a bigger HDD in my notebook and would like to =

have multiple OS'es on it !

i) WIN XP (leaving as original installation)
ii) OS/2 Warp 4.52 as main & primary OS
iii) Linux as additional OS for learning

My intended partitioning looks like following:

1st prim C: NTFS/H WIN XP
OS/2 BM =

2nd prim C: HPFS OS/2 Warp 4.52 (default system)
D: log FAT32 (Data Exchange between all systems)
E: log HPFS EXEC files
F: log HPFS FILE (file folders / download, upload)
G: log HPFS GAR(b)AGE (garbage & maintenance)
H: log HPFS HOME (user data)
i: log HPFS IMAG (es DigiCam pics)

plus Linux System partition 5GB
plus Linux Swap partition500MB

My questions:

What would you recoomend me to do or to change ?

How can WIN XP and Linux access these HPFS partitions ?
If unable: What partition types shall I use to have access with
all OS's ?
How secure / sure are their acesses to HPFS (risk of destroying
data) ?
What limitations or restrictions do I need to observe ?

I may have forgotten anything !?

Please advice and guide to enlighten me ;-))

TIA and kind regards, svob=EF
