[Lazarus] Testers needed (WINDOWS only): Installation/Setup, create 2 (or more) IDE installations with independent configs, using the win installer

[Martin]

Hi,
I need some volunteers for testing.

--- Starting with tomorrows 1.1 (trunk) Snapshots (revision 42510 or up) ---

The Installer for windows has the ability to create secondary 
installations. This allows to have different versions installed, that do 
not interfere with each other.

All you need to do is tick the checkbox "secondary installation" (when 
choosing the install directory), and follow the instructions.
You will then be ask for a new empty folder, where the config will be 
stored (this can be a sub-folder in the install directory).

* This also works, if your existing installation is older.

Updating an installation, using the installer, will detect if the 
selected directory contains a secondary install.

--- Testing
Since I am asking for "testers".

As with everything new: There is a slight chance, things do not go to 
plan. If you try the feature please let me know how it went.

And of course be carefully; and BACKUP your data.

On windows the installer (Version 1.1) can create a secondary 
installations. And it will ask for a folder to store the config.

     Install:
         Make sure you backup ALL your existing configurations BEFORE 
you install.
         AGAIN: Make sure you backup ALL your existing configurations 
BEFORE you install.
         After install check that the correct config is used
           See the file "lazarus.cfg" in the installation directory. And 
Menu "View" > "IDE Internals" > "About IDE"

     Usage
         Do not share packages between installations, have several 
independent copies of each package
         Backup lpi and lps files (If you share projects). Ideally store 
sessions (lps) in the "IDE config directory"
           Menu: "Project" > "Project Options" > Session

     Uninstall:
         If you plan to uninstall: Backup everything again
     Update:
         If you plan to update. Backup everything again
         After update, check that the correct config is still used
           See the file "lazarus.cfg" in the installation directory. And 
Menu "View" > "IDE Internals" > "About IDE"
