sda1 - XP
sda2 - Solaris
sda3 - Kubuntu
sda6 - openSUSE 10.2
sda7 - common storage (ext3)
=====================================
sda7 - common storage , is that a common /home partition for all
the distros ?

Since the HD is sda ,does that mean it is an external USB drive ?

Hi
It's set to mount in fstab for openSUSE and Kubuntu as /common and a
directory added for a user. In this case it's only me. XP sees it as
another drive (e:) via fs-driver ( http://www.fs-driver.org/ ) hence
it being common rather than a home directory. Need to see if can get it
to mount under solaris, I think it's supported in 10 now....

No, it's the internal notebook drive.
