UNCNDL I already carry enough crap when I go back and forth from the ship anyway. Since I only use windows for a select few applications (mainly because WINE isn't supporting USB yet...), I'm loath to carry another harddrive just for windows. The more I'm looking at the matter, the more I'm looking ...

Oh boy... looked at that quaint piece of software. Yeah. I might have to use that, but I'm going to have to back up my Linux side before I do. That looks like a heap of trouble if I fubar it. And I have two weeks left on the ship.

I knew MBR but for what ever silly reason, I looked at the formatting options for a partition and saw MBR and thought... "does that mean my MBR may be in partition 1? Fuuuuuuuuuu". I have the jump drive and external harddrive space to preserve everything but I'm not sure I'll pull the trig...

So I'm getting to my wit's end with Win7 occupying half the harddrive when I use it once a week or so. So, here's the situation and I'd like advice from my fellow Linux users on how to proceed.

TAILS is good for what it is designed for. Read the website and determine for yourself. I can say that you will have problems with wifi access that requires "accepting" some sort of agreement prior to access and will have to break the cloak of anon with separate access via non-secure brows...
