Installation Woes
Hey guys;
I'm having a few problems installing ubuntu 10.10 on to my HP laptop (which already runs Win 7 64-bit). According to the ubuntu website, I should be offered the option of installing a dual-boot system when I run the ubuntu install program. Instead, I'm only offered the options of wiping my hard-drive or manually specifying which partition to install into. I've safely re-sized the existing partitions to free up 120GB of space but my computer already has four primary partitions so... I'm a bit stuck. Would it be safe to delete the 14MB 'HP Tools' partition? Or is there a way of merging that with another partition on my hard-drive? Otherwise, I've found blogs which suggest creating some kind of logical partition with extra divisions within it. If you could tell me how to do that, I'd really appreciate it :) At the moment, I'm wondering if I need a major in programming to actually use this OS.
Thanks again ~
