Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Re: How to install FEDORA 13 ON WINDOWS

In my experience installing Fedora is no different in a multi-boot scenario
than any other distribution except that it does not like to add other
distributions to its grub boot loader. Installing it is easy provided that
you take your time and read carefully. The installation process is in two
steps. You don't add your user name until you re-boot which may be unnerving
for some. For others it is just expected to be this way and Ubuntu's method
of doing it in one go is strange. It all depends on your experience and
adaptability.
