@huanglao:I suggest you to install Trisquel 6.0 from USB device in your
Xubnutu box 13.10 and by default it won't erase any of your Xubnutu stuff.
Here's more similar steps for your case from my experience:
===========================================================
1) When it asks about which partition to install , make it install along with
Xubuntu.
2) Resize the partition of either your Xubnutu /home or / for Trisquel 6.0
3) Trisquel 6.0 won't delete/overwrite Xubuntu's files. But it's always
better to take important files. I did for mine ~500GB!
4) Once installation done , you can loaded with Dual boot (Trisquel 6.0 /
Xubuntu 13.10)
5) You can go into Trisquel 6.0 and copy/access all your stuff inside mounted
Xubuntu partition
6) Anytime , you can go to your Xubuntu 13.10 from boot-loader.(You can keep
this for your historical reference and/or alternate choice)
7) Once you satisfied with the Trisquel 6.0 setup and files, you can go-ahead
remove the Xubuntu's partition.
Refer the attached screen-shot for how I able to access my Ubuntu 13.10 files
from Trisquel 6.0 .
Attachment #1 : Showing my Ubuntu's 89GB of /home and 21GB of / .
Attachment #2 : Showing my Disk utility report.
Once again , it's always better to take important files.Good luck.
!!! Freedom matters !!!
