That's why God invented external SCSI drives.  :-)

I obtained a 9 GB scsi disk for a song *months* ago, if I everg get a
few hours of my own time, I want to zip over to Akiba and get an
enclosure and cables.  Then I plan to install TurboLinux, Debian,
OpenBSD, RH 5.1, and maybe Stampede on it, attach it to my home machine,
and play around until my eyes melt.  I should re-emerge from my cave by
springtime. 

(On a related note: it's soooo ridiculous that you can't boot MS 
operating systems from any arbitrary partition on any arbitrary disk.)

Cheers,
