Hi Linux Community,
I find my self struggling with the ever slow and buggy windoze OS once again.
It's Time to change with the Ubuntu 10.10 64bit as a really faster Operating System.
My Hard Disk laptop as a RECOVERY and HP_TOOLS partition they are both Primary.
I Have the System Recovery DVD for Windows 64bit should anything happen.

Here's the layout I used with windows before:

* (C:) Windows 7 system partition NTFS - 284,89GB (Primary,Boot,Pagefile,Dump)
* HP_TOOLS system partition FAT32 - 99MB (Primary)
* (D:) RECOVERY partition NTFS - 12,90GB (Primary)
* SYSTEM partition NTFS 199MB (Primary)

Here's the layout I want to make based on your answers

* (C:) Windows 7 system partition NTFS - 60GB (Primary) (sda1)
* (D:) Windows DATA partition (user files) NTFS - 120GB(Primary)(sda2);wanna share with Linux
* Linux root Ext4 - 100GB (Primary)(sda3) (Ubuntu 10.10 64bit)
* Linux swap swap- RAM size, 3GB (sda4)
* Linux root Ext3- 15,9GB (Extended)(sda5) (OpenSuse or Puppy)  

Here is my New Ubuntu 10.10 64bit layout in use now:

* SYSTEM partition NTFS 199MB (Primary)                       (sda1)  
**Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.(?)**
* (C:) Windows 7 system partition NTFS - 90GB (Primary)       (sda2)  
* (D:) Windows 7 RECOVERY partition NTFS - 12,90GB (Primary)  (sda3)
* Linux system partition EXTENDED - 195GB (Logical)
        * Linux root Ext4- 10GB (Extended)                    (sda5) 
        * Linux home Ext3- 185GB (Extended)                   (sda6)

I didn't know if I could wipe all previous partitions when i installed Ubuntu because of the RECOVERY partition so I just made the space for my extended partition by deleting the HP_TOOLS (Fat32).
By doing this I managed to make and successfully install Ubuntu 64 but I couldn't actually make the partition for the swap or a third Linux OS.

Question 1: What is the right way to Windows 7/Ubuntu 10.10 Dual-Triple Boot Partitioning for Laptop OEM??

Thank you in advance for your advises and suggestions and Happy New Year to All!!
