No but I sorted it out myself. I just took a chance, it was on a test
server anyway ;-)
In the disk partitioning screen you will see the old 6.5 installation.
Clicking on it will bring up the existing 6.5 partitions. Then select
each of the existing partitions and a configuration menu comes up which
allows you to reformat the partition if required. So just don't
reformat the partitions you want to keep .They then become part of the
new 7.0 installation.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Tony
