2 OS in the same system ?

Hi all,

i would like to know how can i install 2OS on the same system; i would like to have dual boot. Currently i have FC6 installed. When i initially installed FC6, i installed the GRUB boot loader.

Now i would like to install FC7. When i install FC7, should i install GRUB or LILO? or should i not install any boot loader and let the current boot loader take care of the dual boot? in that case, do i need to edit the current /etc/grub.conf ?

Let current installed grub do the job.
