I'm planning to replace 3 old HDDs with one new large capacity HDD. Because of the way I have O/S, apps, data installed currently on separate physical disks (C:, D:, and E), I intend to partition the new HDD to correspond to these. However, I would also like to take the opportunity to experiment with multiple boot (Win 2000 and Linux). I want to retain my CD/DVD drive as F: because a number of installed apps point there. Can I somehow force additional partitions (for Win 2000 and Linux) to pick up letters G: and H: or will one of them grab F: as the next logical drive and so screw up my apps which expect my CD/DVD to be there?
