I am dualbooting 7.04 and 7.10.  I had 7.04 and wanted to try dual
booting.  so, i added a slave drive, as i did not wish to partition my
main one.  I rebooted the pc with the 7.10 livecd and when asked where
to install, I chose /dev/hdb, as opposed the /dev/hda.  The installation
took care of adding the new install to grub.  All I really had to do is
go to /boot/grub/menu.lst and change the time it displays the menu to 20
seconds, So I would have the chance to choose at boot time.
