I have to install CentOS on a spare partition of a laptop with Windows pre installed. Is there anything I have to watch out for? Couldn't find anything in the wiki or does the installer handle this well without me doing some magic, or so?
The installer will handle this perfectly if you select the correct partition for your CentOS installation :-)
usually, you need at least two partitions: one for / and one for swap. best is to setup first a small /boot partition. i'm sure somewhere there are some docs about it :)
With that said, make sure you have a backup of the important stuff on the Windows-partitions.
