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.
