This should be reasonablly trivial I would have thought. The installer on FC3 should let you do this I would imagine. You should manually partition the free space so that the installer has no choice in where it installs the OS ( and thus giving you reassurance that it won't blow away your existing install). It might pay to print out a copy of your existing grub configuration incase the install process doesn't add your existing Fedora install. In that case it will be just a matter of entering the relevant block into the FC3 grub config. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-test-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-test-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of A. Mani Sent: Tuesday, 23 November 2004 10:07 AM To: fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: A. Mani : Update Question Hello, Actually I want to update FC1 by FC3 to a separate partition without affecting the FC1 system. The original production system is on multiple kernels (2.4....2.6.5), KDE3.2 and has a lot of compiled and rpm packages installed. How do I do it ? Will label tricks suffice by any chance ? The usual update install will update at the same location only, right? Thanks, A. Mani Member, Cal. Math.
