Could anything happen - like the sky fall on your head ? In principle
no, but if you're doing anything involving formatting part of a harddisk,
its always best to have up to date backups, which is anyway a good general
rule :-)
I once did an install of RH which botched up a whole harddisk - was it my
mistake or the RH install program ? I don't know, and wouldn't like to bet
one way or the other, but I'm not exactly new to installing Unix (which could
make it more or less likely to have been my fault, depending on whether I'm
defendant or plaintiff :-) )
Kindest regards,
