I have a system with Fedora installed on the partition with label "/". Can I install CentOS on a new empty partition (/dev/cciss/c0d3p1), or do I need to remove the "/" label on the Fedora partition and change Fedora's fstab to mount by physical partition? I'd like to keep Fedora as a fall-back OS until I have CentOS completely up and working.

I haven't tried this with CentOS, but I know that a second Fedora install to the same system will result in the new partitions with the same mount point having a "1" appended to their label. I'd think that CentOS would work the same way, but can't guarantee it.
