: Run your previous linux (call it lin1). run `fdisk /dev/hdb1` (assuming
: your new linux (call it lin2) is on hdb2, ymmv.) and select:
: l list known partition types
: (to see the partition type numbers)
: p print the partition table
: (check what you have)
: n add a new partition
: v verify the partition table
: w write table to disk and exit

: Be careful....

: Don't let caldera install any boot loaders. Alternatively (this might be
: better), let it install lilo on it's own partition or whatever. Then you
: can read the lilo.conf file from caldera's /etc and add the apprpriate
: entries to lilo.conf in lin1's /etc. That's what I did.
:
: Once caldera has been setup, boot back into lin1 and change /etc/lilo.conf
: (or using linuxconf) as described above.
:
: See the LILO mini-HOWTO. also Multiboot-with-LILO.

: Standard disclaimers apply, as always.
