Somewhat on topic here.  How hard is it to do this with no previous
knowledge of how it works?  I am constantly running into the same thing
the OP is and having to move things around.  Currently I have two 80GB
drives.  Here is my partition scheme at the moment:

Just looking to get a better grasp on this since it sounds like
something I need to try.

Thanks
