RE: Use a Multi-boot System...

Hi kocsu

Yes - multiboot is a great way to go. Indeed my machine has THREE primary partitions I can choose from ("General", "DAW" and now "cMP"). gdisk and a few batch scripts makes it easy to click-reboot-and-be-somewhere-else.

I prefer separate primaries - hidden from the "other two" - so that backup & recovery of one environment is divorced from all other concerns. Data lives on other hard drives. Between gdisk and ghost I can save my butt from any foolish thing I might inadvertently do - provided I'm diligent in taking ghost images. Oh yeah... I've had some real "Thank God for Ghost" moments !

Thanks,
Grant

That's not a Toy... IT'S A TOOL !!
