I would like to test FireFox5 but need to keep my FF4 running as is - are there instructions anywhere for how to do a parallel install?

Background: I use IE for everyday browsing, and FF4 for a proxy-tunnel when travelling. Given the new features in FF5 - fuller SVG implementation, SMIL animation set, and CSS animations I would like to test FF5 - or at least be able to view the demos you provide/link to. Thus my question to instructions for doing a parellel install.

Thank you

Thank you - I had found this article but since it dealt with earlier releases I wasn't sure how much of it was relevant for FF4 & FF5 installations.
