Shifting between Linux Distros. How to do it?

August 5th, 2004 Leave a comment Visited 355 times, 1 so far today















I have Mandrake 10 installed but well, I saw Suse distro installed somewhere and liked it more than the Mandrake I currently have. So, well I am downloading the Suse 9.1 personal edition Linux Distribution. Now the problem is that I have never switched between 2 Linux Distros. The setup I have is as under…

40 Gigs partitioned into 20/10/10. The last 10 Gigs (actually its close to 6 Gigs) has Mandrake which can be loaded from Grub Loader at startup. Now, how do I get rid of the Linux Partitions without messing the windows partition so that I can load Suse in that space! Any ideas?

Hey, when you are installing Suse just delete the linux root partition and create new partition in that place, and Select to format it.

Good luck with Suse!
