Installing LMDE side by side with LM10-WIN7 dual boot
Posted: Sat Feb 19, 2011 4:56 pm
Hi all,
my current setup:
newer laptop
single hard drive
dual boot: LM10 | Win7
My plans is to install LMDE as 3rd OS,
to check it out and if all is well then I will stick with LMDE and remove LM10,
leaving LMDE and Win7 as backup.
Questions about installing LMDE next to LM10 | Win7:
1. anything special about installing or running LMDE next to LM10 | WIN7 , partitioning, etc...?
2. anything I have to be aware of during installation in this case?
3. since I have GRUB2 already installed , ***do I have check [x] grub2 during the installation*** or not?
How to best proceed with grub setting during the installation ?
Any help or pointers is much appreciated !
