If you cannot be prepared to use the OS exclusively on that machine, do not install it.  It is a beta copy, and who knows what the installer will do multibooting.

The beta is really for people with 2nd machines

i have installed it on multibooting and all seems to be working fine m8 :y
one thing is for sure it does run quicker than vista

I can't overstate this - it is a beta. ie, potentially buggy and unfinished.  It may do something daft and wipe out other partitions, either during install or in use.

If you cannot afford to be without a PC, do not install, even dual boot.


I'm half tempted to set it up as a VM, open the firewal, and let members play with it....  ....but that would probably be asking for trouble.
