you can install one without removing the other

I do that until I am fully comfortable with the new version

I deleted CS2 before installing CS4. A disaster! I lost my preferences and the other settings, most importantly my actions.

If you install CS4 first, you will also loose preferences and actions. Peferences are not transfered between versions, and you have to manually save your actions first in order to transfer them from one version to another. Plugins can sometimes be moved manually from the old plugins folder to the new one, but some plugins need to be reinstalled.
