I have additional partitions. How do I install Debian on another
partition? The installer insists that I write the partitions
before I install Debian. Is there a way to skip this step given
that writing a partition essentially means deleting everything on
the drive? Puppy Linux didn't insist on writing the partitions
when I installed it after putting Windows XP on the first
partition.
If you're installing Debian to a new partition, then the installer
*must* write the updated partition table.
What am I missing?
