As Jerome said, there's an "Advanced" feature in the installer to give
you more control over the install options, including options to not
reformat your hard disk.

Boot the LiveCD and run this command:

SETUP ADV


If you get an installer with a red banner at the top and red dialog
boxes, you're in Advanced mode.

There is a CD Boot Floppy image included in the LiveCD and LegacyCD zip files 
alongside the appropriate ISO.

You can run the normal Installer. However, you may wish to run it in advanced 
mode for greater control on what happens (setup adv). Also, the Floppy Edition 
installer is an option as well. It can be run from a set of floppy diskettes. 
Or, even from the subdirectory (FDI-x86) on the CD-ROM. It is a completely 
different installer and is less CPU/disk intensive. It to has an advanced mode.
