Please don't do that. If it's essentially the same question, it's fine to
piggyback on someone else's thread, but asking a _different_ question is
likely to get you ignored (how, for instance, will you get the attention of
all the people who've already decided they have nothing to offer in this
thread?)

It won't "override" - the old partition will be completely wiped.
