Hi,
This is my first post on this forum. I have recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 15 5548.
http://www.dell.com/my/p/inspiron-15-5548-laptop/pd?oc=w511265myw8&model_id=inspiron-15-5548-laptop The model that I purchased came pre-installed with Ubuntu 14.04. I would like the dual-boot Windows 7 alongside with Ubuntu 14.04 (I don't mind removing the current installation of ubuntu if it is necessary).
Since the Ubuntu was installed on the 8GB Hybrid flash cache on the 1TB HDD, the flash cache is not displayed in my partition table.
prem@prem-dell:~$ sudo parted --list[sudo] password for prem:
Model: ATA ST1000LM014-1EJ1 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 1000GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
1 1049kB 525MB 524MB fat32 EFI system partition boot
2 525MB 567MB 41.9MB fat32 Basic data partition hidden
3 567MB 3789MB 3221MB fat32 Basic data partition msftdata
4 3789MB 983GB 979GB ext4
5 983GB 1000GB 17.0GB linux-swap(v1)
I have been searching for a tutorial on how to install Windows along-side Ubuntu but was only able to find the reverse.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
