Thanks for confirming that, now I can proceed. I was going to use the
standard Apple Drive Setup, make two partitions. I guess since I
won't be using HFS+ I should make several partitions. I suppose a gig
should be enough for Linux? Wonder if I can mix HFS+ and HFS
partitions on the same drive?

Thanks again,
Jim
