New Dell Inspiron 9400: From Vista to Fedora/Vista.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I just received a new Inspiron 9400 (32 bit dual core chip) with one
100gig (truly 90+gig) drive that is pre installed with Vista on the
entire drive, on >1 partitions.
I would like to have Fedora on it in a dual boot config.
If I have to, I'll reinstall Vista (and free Win software) from scratch.

The question is which is the best way of accomplishing this:
1. Boot the Fedora DVD, and have it shrink the Windoz partition, install Fedora.
2. Get a 3rd party partition manager to reduce the partition, then
install Fedora.
3. Boot Fedora DVD, wipe out partition, install Fedora and afterwards Vista.
4. Wipe out partition, install Vista and afterwards Fedora.

Also key question. Would Fedora 7 differ then FC6 in this scenario?

Thank you.
