(I can't afford it to be "more" broken than it is) More importantly can I specify to Debian that it should create and use a swap partition on the second disk (I would like to eventually get rid of the first disk cause it's getting a little old). Also, during the install can I tell Debian (I didn't get this far) to NOT install lilo (or grub?).
it is safe to "re-use" the swap partition of the other guy, as long its
not being used ( that fc2 is not running )
you will need to fix grub in fc2 to tell it that yu want to
boot debian
- just adding the deb entries ( like the fc entries ) in
fedoraC2:/boot/grub/menu.lst should work
