Hey everybody,
i had an idea, and i wanna know if its possible, or if anybody has done it.
So i run Mac OS X and i want to make a blank partition and setup a local server for testing my sites. basicly the exact same as localhost but on a blank partition. So i would need to install apache, php mysql etc etc.
so how would i do it? or could i ever do it? any help would be amazing!
Apache on black partition

but im on a mac, as far as i know macs dont have drive letters...
would i still be able to keep my apache installation in the normal place that its in now (/usr/bin/local or whatever the default is)
also, if i did that, would i still access the files via http://localhost/ in my browser?
thanks for the reply
