1. Downloaded Ubuntu iso and put it on a usb stick
2. Booted from USB and on the Install - Allocate drive space window, I don't see an "Install alongside other operating systems" option
I current have Vista on a Dell Inspiron 1525 and ~45 GB free space.
What should I check/do? I'd be happy to go with the 'Specify partitions manually' option, but am not clear on how to use it.
I read something about using GParted to setup a partition, but GParted shows that I only have one partition that's 230 GB in size (which is my entire hard drive) which just doesn't seem right... (screen shot attached)
Thanks for your help
