Install Linux 9.1 with Bootit ng
I currently have my system partitioned (Single 70 GB HD) with BootIt NG as detailed below with primaries unlimited and must say that I have found it great to work with.
BootIt NG
WinME
WinXP Home
WinXP Home (2nd Install)
WinXP Pro
My problem is that I now wish to install Mandrake Linux 9.1 but after reading the BootIt instructions I am still very concerned that in doing so I will destroy some of my existing setup. My previous experience has all been with Windows based OS's and perhaps after working with Linux for a while the instructions ( Lilo & Grub etc and how and where to place them) will make some sense to me.
Perhaps if anyone is aware of a site that will do a little more handholding on first experience with Linux they could let me know. If I was installing on a empty HD I would be quite happy to experiment but if it is possible as I am sure it is to complete this task with BootIt with my system intact I would be delighted.
Many thanks
