If we assume for the sake of argument that fragmentation would actually be a problem, then I have a practical question.

A while ago, the OP of this thread in General Discussions asked about a guide to switching to Linux for ereader support. After sixteen pages of (I'm sure well-meaning) people suggesting that the OP just use Windows, I wrote this post.

In the meantime, I've figured a few more things out and was thinking about making a few edits to the post and putting it somewhere more appropriate that would be easier for someone with the same questions to find.

Should I...

make updates to the same post, understanding that people with the same question will find it with a search?
create a new post in General Discussions and ask that it be made a sticky?
create a new post in the Calibre forum (since the rest of the software is just support for Calibre, anyway)?
create three new posts (one each in the Digital Editions, Barnes & Noble and Kindle forums, assuming that the Calibre forum already has Linux covered)?
not bother because there aren't enough interested in using Linux?

Or is there another suggestion?
