I am finally ready to cut the cord after using Ubuntu for a couple months now. I am currently dual-booting with Windows on the first partition and Ubuntu on the 2nd and would like to get rid of windows but need to make sure I'm not going to fubar my Ubuntu install.
Is grub installed on the first (ie windows) partition? In other words, by removing that partition is it going to have an effect on getting the system to boot? Also, will removing that partition change the order and mapping of partitions in Ubuntu? RIght now my structure is as follows in order from first partition to last on the HD: /dev/sda (my only HD) /dev/sda1 (windows ntfs partition) /dev/sda3 ((ubuntu ext3 partition) /dev/sda2 (extended patition) /dev/sda5 (linux swap within the extended) /dev/sda6 (fat32 within the extended) -- Brian Weeden
