Hey all,

Pondering sticking an 8GB HP Colorado into my machine. First off, do they
play nicely with Linux?

Second, is it a case of just plugging it in and it working? Is it likely
that I'd need to compile in support? Are there tools likely to be there
(Slack7) already for making backups and stuff or does one just treat it as
another drive to throw stuff at?

Lastly, I think Arkeia (sp?) is floating around... has anyone used it?
Good? Bad?

Cheers,
Ross.
