Hey everyone!
After looking into the different linux distros I fell in love with 8.10 after trying the live CD. I want to keep my old windows install so I was wondering if the following was possible.
My computer is the following:
I have an HP 8220us
2 80 GB hard drives
1 GB RAM
2.0 Ghz AMD Turion 64 processor
Broadcom wireless card
Here is what I want to do.
-Hard drive 1 would have just Windows XP and GRUB (how would I install it on just this drive?)
-Hard Drive 2 would have Ubuntu on one partition and another partition for my music (~40 GB)
If this is possible what sizes should the different partitions be and how would I go about doing this?
Thanks! :D And sorry if this is a repeat! I looked around on google for a couple hours and couldn't find anything about installing Ubuntu with this configuration :confused:
