To install any operating system you need to boot up into a dedicated boot environment.
Why, exactly? Say I am running oS 12.3 and have a spare partition, why shouldn't it be possible to execute a program in the running 12.3 system which does a 1st stage install into the spare partition and updates the bootloader? At the next boot, you can then choose to boot to the new installation and complete the install from there...
I think I remember seeing a yast module to install the distro on another directory :-? - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
