Drive Setup for YDL

[nathan r. hruby]

Hey There!

So.. I have a second disk on which I'm going to install YDL3 (already 
prepared for the 'second disk issue' :)  But I'm wondering what the 
best layout for this disk should be.  It's a 180GB disk on which I want to 
use a portion of the space for an additional MocOSX install, possibly a 
test OSX-Server install, YDL, and possibly Gentoo as well :)

So.. I'm thinking (From a Disk Utility Prespective) I should layout the 
disk in this order:
# Top/front of disk
  - 60 GB Unallocated for Linux(es) to chop up into bite size pieces for 
    each linux.
  - 40 GB OSX
  - 40 GB OSX-Server
  - 20 GB Empty HFS+ to play with 
# bottom/end of disk

Anyone see issues with that layout?  Additionally, this disk will need to 
boot into os9, so I'm going to need to install the drivers on to the 
disk, I recall there there's an issue with having more that 17 partitions 
on a disk.. is this still a truism?  I might run into that.

thanks!
