Thread: Changing from wubi to dual boot


hey all,

have been running ubuntu on wubi taste see if it. well, verdict in , want officially set dual boot. plan on having ntfs partition xp, ext3 ubuntu, small swap , large ext3 /home common/shared files using fs-drive program. here's question, when go partition of this, partition program live disc install "intuitive" enough set partitions there free space doesn't clip off installed xp or should go through whole process of moving external disc, setting partitions , moving back? thank

assuming have xp installed, , free space available on hard drive, ubuntu installer give following options:
install ubuntu next xp using free space available.
resize xp partition , install ubuntu onto (now larger) free space.
erase existing partitions , install ubuntu only.
manually partition drive (ie yourself).

if have xp installed (if going dual-boot recommend installing windows first), , have free space available, i'd tell installer go option uses existing free space.
