Besides what about the furniture?

No if its the foam backed carpet then you are going to need a very good
vacuum cleaner as well an something to chip off the stuff stuck to the
edging tape or floor if its ever been washed.

Has anyone laid lino over carpet? What was the outcome?

It's for upstairs at work, there's nobody trotting about in high heels,
just two blokes in trainers. If I rip the carpet up the floorboards will
probably be such that i'd need to put something over them to remove all
the lumps and bumps.

I wouldn't do it, even on my worst bodgiest day. Getting the carpet out is
normally a quick process
