This is my first foray into the Linux world. I used wubi to install 8.04LTS over my 1) WindowsXP Pro Sony VAIO laptop and my 2) Windows Media Center HP desktop.
In both instances, the install went fine, but in the case of the laptop, with only a single C: drive, Ubuntu won't recognize the rest of the NTFS drive, only the Linux partition. In the case of the desktop, Ubuntu will recognize the drives that 8.04 is NOT installed to, but not the drive it is on, except for the Linux partition.
I didn't see any options to partition during install, and I can't figure a way to mount the volume, so can an experienced Linux person give me a hand?
Thanks for your help
