Re: [nslu2-linux] Digest Number 2660

I would propose to:
+ remove the HDD
+ install Lenny to an USB stick
+ bring up Lenny setup to whatever you want
+ reattach the HDD
+ finally, add HDD to 'fstab', f.i. to become '/media/data'

This will make you able to anytime change the disk without loosing the
OS and vvs.
Once you need to raplace the HDD, just add an USB hub between SLUG and HDD1,
Attach HDD2, cp all you need from HDD1 to HDD2, edit fstab, remove USB
hub + HDD1 - done

I do not want to lose any data on the harddisk. My question is this. How do I safely install debian on a HD that was previously used for Unslung? I would like to retain all the original data on the HD (which was 60% full).
