Alright so I need some help. I've been using Ubuntu for a few years now and I see no need to use Windows anymore. My Asus U6S laptop runs only Ubuntu so I figured my desktop should be windowsless as well. On my Sony RA desktop I have a 250 GB Western Digital HD running Windows and a 500 GB HD Western Digital HD running Ubuntu. I also just installed a 3rd 500 GB Western Digital HD I had from another machine which is completely unallocated space. I'd like Ubuntu to take up all of my HD space.
I'm trying to do the install across all 3 but if I choose "erase and use entire disk" it makes me pick only 1 of the 3 HD's. And when I go into the advanced partitioning tool I get a little lost. I added every part of every HD as ext4 and and selected for it to be formatted but I run into "no mount point assigned for ext file system SDC...." and then I assign a mount point "/" for that file system it tells me that "two file systems can't have the same mount point."
250 GB HD is sda (no mount point assigned)
500 GB HD is sdb (this is the unallocated HD which I assigned mount point "/")
500 GB HD is sdc (this is the one I tried to add another mount point "/")
So, what should my mount points be? Any advice is most appreciated. Thanks!
