Hi All

I'm going to be installing Fedora Core 1 sometime next weekend. I currently
have Lycoris Desktop/LX dual-booting with Windows 2000 Professional on a
20GB hard-drive. I would like to format the 3 linux partitions ( /, home and
swap) which are on hda which I am currently using for Desktop/LX.

Desktop/LX installs grub as the bootloader, is this a problem? Will Fedora
kill grub and install it's own default bootloader?

Last time I tried to install College Linux 2.3 my PC refused to boot
afterwards because the install somehow damaged grub but didn't delete and
install it's own default bootloader. I had to reinstall everything from
scratch which is a pain in the behind.

Thanks

Michael
