I am using it for an everyday usage. Standard home os, but I do try and keep lots of ISOs handy.
I have found that it runs smoothly from the hard drive and not from a cd. I do try and burn them
at least once to a cd. I hope tonight that I can redo my system with Ext3. There are times when
I am running on a different PC and I don't have the ISO there, so that is why I am thinking of a
file server. I do have a new 250gig drive that I could use. That is the drive that I was trying
to backup to before it crashed and burned. It could be fun.
