Hi all
This is a OpenSUSE only variant of a thread I started
here
Installing linux alongside windows can be quite daunting for new users. The fear of losing data is always
there, besides other problems like corrupting your boot record, getting a completely unusable system at the end, etc.
The purpose of this tutorial is to simplify the process by the use of screenshots of an actual installation (a picture is equal to a thousand words someone said).
I have covered two flavours of linux, Ubuntu and OpenSUSE. The process is very similar in other
flavours.
Assesing your hard disk, partitions
To install linux on your PC you should first make some free space available on your hard disk for the install. Click
on Start->Control Panel->Performance and Maintainance->Administrative Tools->Computer Management
