- /dev/hda3 -- A couple gigs of ext3 for common space. Mount it on something like /opt/shared for all three distros, so you can dump a file there in one distro, reboot into another distro, and still have that file.
- /dev/hda4 -- All remaining space, as an extended partition.
- /dev/hda5 -- First partition in extended partition. Holds root partition for Distro #1.
- /dev/hda6 -- Second partition in extended partition. Holds root partition for Distro #2.
- /dev/hda7 -- Third partition in extended partition. Holds root partition for Distro #3.
Thanx Corona688 for the info.
So, i'll be doing this --> CentOS = /dev/hda5
Fedora = /dev/hda6
Redhat = /dev/hda7
Seems like 'fun' in hell. Gonna update u guys as i go along the installation. I wonder if all distro can be up 1 at a time until all 3 are running or 2 down and 1 up? Any advice?
