I just did this, so I know it works.

Download Calibre 1.48 portable from http://download.calibre-ebook.com/1....ler-1.48.0.exe

Next, run the installer and install it. Then use Windows Explorer to go to the directory you installed it in and right click on the file calibre-portable.exe, select send to and then select Desktop (create shortcut). You will then have an icon on your desktop for both Calibre 2.x and Calibre 1.48 portable.

One thing you will want to do is to turn off the notification on new version in the settings for the portable version.

Also, you can copy your Calibre 2.x settings into the Calibre Portable 1.58 settings directory and then install the plugins you want/need for Marvin.
