Yes. I've been following this track (more or less) since pre-Feisty -- my laptop has been upgraded from Dapper to Feisty in this way. > > (2) Is there a way of telling "Feisty i386-desktop CD beta" not to > install grub?

In previous incarnations, the alternate CD had a text-mode installer which allowed you to do that. The "install from live CD" option (the one that's used right now) is for newbies and for general consumption -- the common case would be to install grub anyway. -- JM Ibanez Senior Software Engineer Orange & Bronze Software Labs, Ltd.
