	I hope it is not nostalgia as too much nostalgia can
be fatal.

	Not as far as I know. Linux has a flexibility that Windows© eschews. 
There were supposed to be additions to Windows© that allowed
it to read in ext3 or ext4.  Haven't heard about it lately.
	But modern Linux distributions can access the Windows© partitions.

	But if you are a glutton for Windows© punishment they Microsoft©
has produced a version of Linux that runs under Windows©.  Not under XP
but the later versions.   You will have to go to Windows© to read about
that addition to Windows©

	Well I haven't seen it lately.  Maybe it is time to look around.
By the way Knoppix is up to 9.1 freely distributable but maybe 9.2 has
been released by now. It was released only at a German show with a
magazine promotion.  AFAIK it will still install as version of
Debian...

	Oh please don't regress to DEC TOP20 partition.
	If you do finding help will be harder.
