Hello. I am working with a PowerBook6455 B with a windows 7 (not the original) operating system installed. I am trying to create a new partition with Ubuntu 12.04 from a live USB. When I go to install and click the "something else" option, I get the "Installation type" window. It lists the following partions as existing
/dev/sda"
Device: /dev/sda1, Type: ntfs, Mount Point: [blank], Size: 104MB, Used 35MB
Device: /dev/sda2 Type: [Blank]:, Mount Point [blank], Size: 249952, Used [blank]
If I select the sda2 device and click change, I get the Edit a partion window. This window does not give me an option to set a new size for that partion.
Can anyone suggest why I do not have that option, why it doesn't tell me how much space is used on sda2, and how I can work around this problem?
Thanks for any advice.
Best,
Jacob
