It can be easily done through the Debian installed -- Just partition your drive in half, use half for the root partition and do not touch the second half. Then before booting into your new system, run the installer again and install Debian to the second partition. GRUB will automatically configure itself (You may want a boot partition, though -- I would use it for both installs, personally, although I'm not sure how messy that would get). - -- If programmers deserve to be rewarded for creating innovative programs, by the same token they deserve to be punished if they restrict the use of these programs. - Richard Stallman -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHQv0Eg6qL2BGnx4QRApR8AJ0YLHBVTa0LmNUDjaTv/gm5d+wZUgCfZS8c ILaDQYBMrn5PvrtwB/WnupM= =PEVR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
