Title: Laptop HP 6910p with Vista; how to install CoreLinux 4.5.6?
Post by: floppy on July 23, 2012, 10:06:29 AM

Hello,
tomorrow, I will install CoreLinux 4.5.6 on a hp6910p laptop where Vista is installed.
I was already successfull in installing CoreLinux on an xp netbook here http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,11265.msg58975.html#msg58975
a) shrink the HDD
b) create a next ext4 partition
c) follow the instructions in the link above
Is it the same way for Vista?
Just a question before I start.
Thanks.

Hi floppy
Vista is capable of adjusting partition sizes. I would let Vista shrink the partition.
