Install Ubuntu over Suse on a Linux-Vista dual boot
I have Suse Linux and Windows Vista installed on a dual-boot laptop. I can boot to both OSs via the GRUB loader without problems, but I would like to replace Suse with Ubuntu (8.0).
My main concern is to not mess things up on my Windows partition during the install process, or to loose the ability to dual boot. All of the information in the Linux partitions can be overwritten (nothing to save) but I I don't want anything touched on the Windows partition. None of the partitions have to be re-sized.
My question is whether I can do a "standard" install from the Ubuntu CD so that Suse will be overwritten, but not the Windows partition? Do I run a risk of getting a triple boot machine (which I don't want) with both Vista, Suse and Ubuntu?
Thanks for any suggestions.
