ok vista cd what next

Ok, All set to get beta 2- couple of newbie questions?
1) set up at 35 gig partition-have my primary(c) running xp-so set up(d) at 35gb and formatted it to NTFS
2) grabbed burncdcc to burn the iso to cd/dvd
3) what next? My Dell e1505 is using c as the primary. Do I need to change the MBR? or When I insert the burned Vista cd;will it be like XP install cd? where you can pick which partition to set it up on? or will it automatically try to load on c? Jeff

Copy the disk image (ISO) to the DVD using the disk image function of your software. Boot from the DVD. It will give you an option of which partition to install on. Be sure to choose custom when it is offered.
