I'm aware of preupgrade, but that's for upgrading the system you're currently running.

I want to be able to do something like this:

I'm running Fedora12 as a MythTV system and would like to be able to install Fedora14 onto separate (unused) partitions while I'm running F12 (to minimize downtime). Since this is effectively the same thing as running a LiveCD and installing to the HDD, I'm wondering if I can do this.

I've done some more searching and wonder whether anaconda can be run with some command line options to point at the ISO with F14 but still aren't sure this is possible.

It would be a great feature in f15 if you could insert the DVD (or CDs) into your running system and then run something that allowed you to install Fedora elsewhere without having to sit looking at your system while the installer runs.
