The incessant troubles/discussions/arguments with LVM were a real turn-off. So in reading through the docs, the first item on the list was "minimum requirements". One of these was a PC with a 133 FSB. Mine is nominally 100 o/c'd to about 112. Is this going to be a problem? Secondly, I want to install eCS to a spare 1.8G HPFS partition and add it to the existing Boot Manager menu. Is this possible? Thanks for any help.
