I have a PC running with windows 7 ultimate 64 bit version with 4 gig Ram. I have a 320 gig hard disk , in which I have allocated 120 gig for windows 7, 100 gig for NY files(named ashwin in windows) and rest 80-90 gig partitioned but empty NTFS partition.Now where do I install Ubuntu so that windows and data is safe.
I got the option install with windows I selected it , it then shows select drive(SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda) -320.1 GB ATA WDC WD3200AAJS-6) and allocate driver by dragging the divider below which shows 66.5gb and 59.3 GB respectively. Which one do I go with?
I clicked advance partitioning it shows five devices:
device , type, m.point ,size.(mb), used(mb).........
/dev/sda1, NTFS, 104 , 35 (windows 7 loader)
/dev/sda2, NTFS, 104752, 23604
/dev/sda3, NTFS, 125829, 10161
/dev/sda5, NTFS, 89382, 3221
when I checked size in properties it showed
name of drive according to windows,
used.Gb, free, total.
ashwin, 10.2, 115.7, 125.8
c drive, 23.6, 81.1, 104.8
new volume, 92.6mb, 89.3, 89.4
except mentioned everything in gigabytes.ignore the last dots.
I want to install it in new volume or using that space how do I do it?
Explain in detail I'm a beginner.
