So I am just getting into the Ubuntu scene after a long wait on my computer to be put together. I want to have Windows XP Pro on my larger drive, being a 500GB, and Ubuntu on my smaller drive, being 320GB.
I tried to figure it out myself, but no no avail. The first time I tried I only allocated 250Mb for Ubuntu after the install. I tried again but this time allocated 120GB for Ubuntu after the installation. I put both the Windows OS and Ubuntu on the same hard drive before I realized I had two drives and could put one on each. I'd like to have a prompt come up asking which OS to load as well.
Is there anyone that can walk me through how to do this? I need Windows on the computer for work, but I want to tinker with Ubuntu.
