Mint 21.1
On installation from an USB stick, the questions asked as to which partition to install. I don't know where to direct the installation of the boot loader. I have a windows partition that I don't want to overwrite. I want the installation to dual boot. However, there is an existing Mint 18 installation. The question asked is: Do I want a side by side installation. No. I want to overwrite the existing Mint 18 installation.
So I select, something other. The install program brings up the partitions where I want the boot loader installed.
I don't know. I want to preserve the existing windows install. What do I select in order to achieve a dual boot system that preserves the existing windows install?
Gratefully,
Silverfox.
