I have a Dell laptop with Windows 8 installed.
There are a total of five different partitions.
I want to delete everything on the hard disk and install Ubuntu 13.04.
I do not want a dual load capability.
I see that there is an option to do this when installing Ubuntu.
Here's my concern: When I install Ubuntu, using the entire disk option, will all of these five now existing partitions be deleted or will I end up with part of my hard disk holding on to some of those not wanted partitions.
I really don't want that to happen, so can somebody let me know if I'm good to go or not.
Thank you
