I just installed Fedora for the first time on my Windows/Linux dual boot system. The Fedora installer gave me the option of installing over the present linux installation on the disk, an old Mandriva version. I assumed this meant the operating system partition. There were 2 other unrelated ext3 partitions for photo archives and e-mail backup. After booting into Fedora I discovered that the Fedora installer wiped every linux partition without confirmation or consent. I have installed other versions of Linux and I have always been given a choice. Your installer should indicate that ALL linux type file systems will be wiped, in addition to the operating system file system.
