Um, no, that is not what I wanted...

Yes, this is what I wanted!
So simply install the LiveCD while running under F9. somehow
start it up, then follow "instructions" to install the F11 into the
correct partitions? Is it that simple? I have not done this before
so I wanted to be sure I get it right, otherwise I could potentially
lose my F9 and/or my drive!
Please advise?
Thanks!
