Default Upgrade from Beta2 to RC1 on Dual boot

Hi All
I have Vista Beta2 running very happily on a dual boot system with XP on C:
and Vista Beta 2 on E:.
I am downloading Vista RC1 at this moment and want to upgrade Vista without
affecting the status quo.
Could some one please advise on the procedure for this, I am assuming that I
would boot to Vista and the run the set up from the DVD from inside Vista.
Are my assumpions correct, or should I do this from the XP installation as I
did on the initial Beta 2 intallation.
My copy of Vista beta 2 is fully patched

Thanks
Andrew

Yes, if you want to upgrade Beta 2 to RC1 then you have to boot into
Vista Beta 2, insert the RC1 DVD and select the upgrade option.
