Mint Gnome (main OS), WinXP (for games) and another Linux distro (I'm going to try Mandriva XFCE) :mrgreen:

OK fellows, don't misunderstand me. :) I only keep Windows for scanner work, that's all. :D
Daryna is number one for me.
Waiting anxiously for Elyssa though.
Using a 20GB test disk, I have Mepis7 as a standby, Ubuntu Hardy, and whatever else I fancy to take a look at.

Cheers

My main machine runs only Linux Mint 4 GNOME. I tend to be old-fashioned and run one distro per system.

Mint Daryna Xfce, Mint Daryna Gnome and Klikit beta, which I'm currently testing. I also have another computer with Win XP for software that will only run under windows.
Using Mint as primary OS since 2006.

Mint and more than one other distro. At this moment, Mepis and Etch are also installed. So I guess I would have to choose "Other."

Vista, Mepis 6.5 and Mint Daryna KDE. Vista is on my machine because it came that way and I thought I might need it to help friends but since no one wants Vista I have been too lazy to remove it. I will probably remove it when I go to a larger hard drive.

Mint and Vista(for games). The newer version of wine is letting me play more games. I might wipe it all out with Elyssa!

I want to try BSD. I have the discs and everything, but I just can't be bothered to install it because I'm perfectly happy with Mint.
Right at the very moment, I have Mint as the default, and Fedora 9 Preview is installed on another partition.

I do keep win xp on a partition mainly because i help my neighbours when they get into trouble on their pc's, have tried to move them over to linux with limited success but keep trying.

Mint daryna is what i use on a daily basis and i switch to elyssa to try it out and get things how i like so that it will replace daryna and then leave that space for the next mint after elyssa

So right now i have

1st hard drive: IDE

win xp 20gb
Personal partition formatted fat32 with my music and photos 130gb

2nd hard drive: SATA2

linux mint daryna 20gb
linux mint elyssa 18gb (testing)
linux mint daryna kde 20gb
swap 2gb
spare 20gb

Thats how i have it set up right now and i use GAG to boot
