Hello all,
New to linux so I was going to try and install dual boot with Windows on my laptop. I started to go through the install process and when I tried to make partitions using the installer it never completed. Reading the instructions on the web site I was sucessful in creating a new partition using the rescue cd and gparted.
So now I am wondering which install option do I need to use to install into the new empty partition.
I set aside 30GB and was going to use the manual method to create the partition and so I wondered what settings I need to make. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Which file system sizes etc?
Thanks all!!!
Eric
