Hey Everyone,

I currently have D6 installed for my domain. Can I install D7 in a sub domain so I can play with it and not effect my domain with D6 on it? I don't need data to transfer over I just want to play with D7.

Is this possible? Thanks.

Simplest way is to install it inside a folder of current doamin so oyu would have mydomain.com/drupal7
Drupal 7 or whatever you choose to call it would be completely independent of mydomain. It would have own database, modules, themes etc.

Yes. I do this all the time. Just make sure to create a separate database and reference it in the new site's settings.php. Don't try to share the same database.

You can use the same DB but make sure to use different table prefixes (to be specified during install).
