How to install Linux on USB Hard Drive
Aloha
My extensive knowledge of Linux is best displayed by the fact I bought the book "Linux for Dummies" two days ago and I'm already asking for help. I want to install Linux on my HP Windows 7 desktop computer. I do not have room for a second internal drive but I do have a 1TB HP "Personal Media Drive" (USB Portable Hard Drive) that connects inside of a dedicated space in the computer. I do not want to fool with the internal hard disk but instead want to install Linux on the "Personal Media Drive" and want to be able to choose either Windows or Linux at boot up. Hopefully I want to use half of the 1TB for Linux and the other half for Windows storage and back-up. The "Linux For Dummies" book covers everything but what I need to know to get started on the equipment I have. Any help would be appreciated.
