[aclug-L] Upgrading to SCSI from IDE

["Carl B. Davis" <cdavis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings, 

I presently have a RedHat Linux 5.2 server for my small office.  It is
running a smallish ide drive.  I have acquired a much larger SCSI drive
and also RH 6.0 copy from cheapbytes.  My first thought was that I would
physically swap those drives out, install the adaptec SCSI card and
reinstall linux on the SCSI drive.  I would prefer, however, to leave
both drives in the machine at the same time.  I wasn't sure if I could
dual boot between these drives and the different versions of linux, and
have them installed in the same machine.  If I can, I want to ease into
my RH 6, SCSI drive so I don't crater my whole operation.  I also am not
anxious to devote a large block of time, and would rather be able to
gradually work on it as time allows.  Any advice or suggestions will be
appreciated. 


Carl
