My idea was to run linux on the slave drive, using it as the internet connection so that when xp is no longer suported with security updates. I can maintain secure net use without purchasing new versions of windows. As yet I have no idea which is the best method or even if it can be done.
my current broadband provider is tiscali. I have many important contacts who use windows, and do not want to lose these.I am open to working suggestions being new to linux.
regards and thanks for help.
