Hi, I have an AMD Atholn dual core 2.1 GHz, 3 GB ram, 320 GB free space (laptop).
I'd like to have both installed: Windows XP and Ubuntu Jaunty.
Correct this please:
I'm planning to have three partitions
1) Windows XP OS
2) Ubuntu Jaunty OS
3) FAT Partition (for storing data)
a) How do u suggest to manage the 320 gb free space in those 3 partitions? (and also how much for the swap partition?) - Software should be installed in the respective OS partitions (not in the data partition, i know it depends on which programs i'm going to install... but aproximately for some office usage) (only big games will be installed in data partition)
b) is it ok to have it in FAT partition? So i can access from, both, XP and Jaunty... (could it be NTFS?)
thanks! :D
