Installing RH 9 over Suse 9


Hi,
I want to install RH9 over a working Suse 9 with win2k in dual-boot mode.
What is the easiest way to go for it ?

Thanks

Install RH as usual... Tell it to delete the existing Linux partitions, if you don't want to use SuSE anymore. It will then create partitions in the newly-freed space.

If SuSE was controlling the booting, you can tell the RH install to take over. It should install to the MBR and setup to dual boot.
