Multiple distros (debian and kubuntu) sharing swap and /home partitions
Is it possible, or would it cause problems?
I'm currently multibooting WinXP, Ubuntu and Debian (sarge). I thought I'd give Kubuntu a go, since my main Ubuntu objections are because of Gnome.
Ubuntu and Debian currently have separate swap partitions, since I added RAM in between installations and gave debian more swap space.
If I add Kubuntu, could I set its swap and /home partitions to share the debian ones already there?

yes, the swap i know you can share...and i'm pretty sure you can share your /home directory safely too
