Hi,

I've never used Knoppix before and I have a dual-boot system.
WindowsXP + Elive (at the moment).

I've done many installs next to my XP partition (like Sabayon, Ubuntu, DreamLinux etc).

I just put the LiveCD in my drive, start the distro and hit 'install to disk', then I choose my Linux partition with the old distro on it, hit delete partition and make a new one instead and just start the install and write the GRUB to my MBR.
It never have damaged my bootloader so my XP always stayed intact in the bootmenu.

I'm downloading Knoppix right now and expect the same way to install it but I see so many topics about installations.... Is there something different about a Knoppix install ? Can my WindowsXP or bootloader-menu be damaged or fail when I delete my Elive partition and make a new one after Knoppix is loaded from CD and do an installation to Disk ??

The forum made me feel unsecure now to do what I always do, so wanna know for sure .

Thanks.
Gr.
Amp
