RE: An EMC question

Hi,

I only have one HD on the laptop (about 810mb). I'm not sure if I can
disconnect it from the laptop and hook in up in my desktop computer...maybe.
I was hoping to keep the two separate.

If I follow the procedure for installing Linux via the HD (as outlined in
the docs), does the EMC stuff get installed too? It's not too clear right
now.

Thanks

Gary
