hi, (pardon my english) i've been searching the previous posts without a result..
so i'm at my second ubuntu installation, the first one went well till i exaggerated a bit with various modifications. so i went to win xp and formatted the ubuntu partition. So..
1. can i just use wubi like it was first-time installation or can i expect problems with booting?
2. separate /home partition is widely recommended, but can i do it with wubi during the ubuntu installation?
3. is there any sense in preparing a swap partiotion before the actual ubuntu installation? (using acronis disk suite in win xp there's a possibility in pre-formatting a swap partiotion).
thank you
