Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
I'm a new gentoo user (coming from ubuntu). I've been proving to |
4 |
myself that I can do everything I need with gentoo on a secondary |
5 |
laptop, and after a few weeks, I think I've got it (svn repos, AVR |
6 |
cross compiler, multiple screens, etc). I much prefer gentoo to |
7 |
ubuntu, and would like to put it on my primary laptop. But I think I |
8 |
should leave an ubuntu installation on there just in case. I'd like |
9 |
to have gentoo, ubunu, and win7 alongside each other. |
10 |
|
11 |
How feasible would it be to have gentoo and ubuntu share a /home |
12 |
partition? I've never had a reason to have multiple linux |
13 |
installations on a single machine before, but I can't think of a |
14 |
reason why this wouldn't work. .bashrc might need a few more lines of |
15 |
code. .screenrc and .exrc would be fine. My ssh keys can be shared. |
16 |
What would happen to .mozilla if ubuntu and gentoo are running |
17 |
different versions of firefox? What other issues might I run into? |
18 |
|
19 |
Alternatively, is there a way to keep gentoo's and ubuntu's hidden |
20 |
files separate and link or map them to ~ at boot? |
