Hi all, one more new user ...:lolflag:
I would like to feel more confident will Linux. A friend of mine
told me that the best one is Ubuntu...
So I'm trying to install it on a system that i've built and
of course i have troubles.
My system is based on a 2.4 Prescott proc, chipset Intel 845 and
a 160 Gb SATA disk.
First I tried to install directly Ubuntu on my disk, using CD ROM
but my disk was never seen by the system.
So looking at the forums, I tried to install first XP pro (that's ok).
I made two partitions on my disk, one for Windows, one for Ubuntu.
When I boot with Ubuntu CD, without install, i can see my two partitions, that's ok now.
When i want to install it, the guided proposes me to install
system on sda2, where i can see that i have 73 Gb free.
That's ok for me and i press continue but i get a message
telling that the size is too small .........
What's wrong ? Where do I mistake ?
Thanks for your help, hoping that my english is enough fluent to
explain my issue.
