I recently got this cheap computer I like from a friend. its a asus a7m266-d server i636 comp.
i got it with only one scsi 20 gb hard drive.
since i ain't got the time to buy another hard drive or find it kinda difficult find a big size one in scsi i wanted to do something different. but i do need help on partitioning the ubuntu part as my second option.
the reason, i like vista with virtual machine on ubuntu. and have fun loading drivers from all source. plus i know how to do it. easy!!
anyways, i was able to put vista in only 3 gigs but i know i need a little bit more space to install other software i might need.
so i made it half of the hard drive. i know dumm.
but i want to use virtual machine to open my ubuntu without haveing to reboot and intall drivers a new way.
so now i will install ubuntu because i know it only uses 3 gigs.
or atleast thats what google said after figuring the part out.
i'll find out after installing vista in less than 30 min.
and saving memory and space. by usinti vistalite. i found it hard over time and easy at the moment.
anyways. instead of figuring out this in the long way i wanted to ask what comfiguration like root, boot, /, and all that can i use to make it my second partition on the same hard drive.
i know its not easy but i know it can be down.
thanks for helping, in advanced.
remember saves time memory and space. and money too!
