Hi,
Can the dev team make it easier to install Fedora 14
when Windows is already installed on the same hard drive?
To be honest I use Ubuntu 10.04 and it does this automatically

I installed F13 on a hard drive with Windows XP on it

In any case, if someone wants your data that bad, it is time to dig out
the old sledgehammer and physically destroy the disk. Otherwise, scrub

Programs that just write over the data a few times may or may not help
