Hi, One of my friend is trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 in his machine. He has windows there. And, he is a very new user of linux, i mean, this is his first step. Anyway, his hdd is 250 gigs. There are totally 8 partitions there, 7 are totally NTFS & i think all of them are primary partitions.
Now, when he go for the ubuntu 8.04 installation, in the "hard disk partition" sector, he cannot select "Manually partition", i mean, this "Manually partition" is automatically *deselected. *When he goes for partitioning, "*Fully automatic partition" comes with his whole 250 gigs hdd. * As far as i remembered, once i faced such type of problem & solved this with debian dvd. There in debian only, i got the whole hard disk partition table, from where i removed & created new ones. But, my friend dont have any debian dvd now & he is really a novice user here in linux world. Now, what should i suggest him? -- Best, Z _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
