For testing a FS a virtual machine is fine, but often you need a "real" install even for playing, that's why I've got a multi-boot with that many Linux. I'm not maintaining all those installs. Indeed, regarding to the kind of playing, a multi-boot could be risky, but usually it isn't, simply keep a backup disconnected from the computer, not only a copy from one HDD to the other inside your computer. This should be save enough for home usage, where we usually have the time to restore from a backup. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
