3rd operation system was created by willwang
:dry:
dear all,

I've got windows xp and OpenSuse in my machine. They are managed by GRUB. Can I still install CAElinux 2010 to this machine without disturbing the existing systems?

Thanks!:)<br /><br />Post edited by: willwang, at: 2011/04/25 06:58

You can either let GRUB (from CAELinux) install entries for the other operating systems, or you can omit installing GRUB (from CAE) and add you own entry from your other Linux system.

Good luck :)

Thanks Claus, I will give it a go.
How can I avoid UBUNTU overwrite Opensuse system files? The linux system should be able to detect that, shouldn't it?

During the installation you can partition your hard drive to your heart's content. You should create a new partition for CAELinux, but you can share the swap space with another linux installation if you like.
To not destroy your current installation, create a new partition and do not use any existing partition (i.e. format any partition).

Regards,

Claus
