Having seen all the plugs for the mepis distro in recent posts, I 
decided to take a look & downloaded the two ISOs.

The disk I want to install mepis on is my "experiment with various 
distros" disk and looks like:

	primary partition 1 (hdb1):	small winxp installation
	primary partition 2 (hdb2):	linux swap partition
	primary partition 3:	wrapper for logical partitions
		hdb5:	Mandrake 9.2
		hdb6:	small fedora
		hdb7:	where I want to put mepis
		hdb8:	available for now, knopix later
		hdb9:	available for now
		hdb10:	large fedora (may delete if need space)

When I got to the custom partitioning screens during mepis install, I 
saw nothing that gave me any confidence that mepis would install on hdb7 
where I wanted it. Obviously, I do not want it overwriting one of the 
existing installations.

Before I "go all the way" with a mepis install, I'd like some 
encouraging words from a mepis user, that in spite of the ambiguous 
screens, mepis understands & will follow my installation location 
instructions.
