Hi!

I'm soon planning on removing Vista from my 2nd hard drive. I'll be reinstalling Ubuntu shortly after but I have a query...

I know that Ubuntu will install on my primary hard drive just fine, but what will happen with my 2nd drive? Ideally I'll want this set as my /home directory which will have all my pics and music etc. in it, but will this be easily done when going through the install process or will I have to do something after installing to get it to do that?

Thanks! =)

Choose manual option when it comes to disk partitioning during the install. You will be able to set up whatever partition setup you want.

Exactly. Have a good look through this. Not quite halfway down the page there is a guide for manual partitioning.
