Phillip, Set up some of the spare space as an ext4 partition with a boot point of / Created a smaller partition for swap.
Tried an install via ubiquity. Long paiuse and then a "where are you?" form appeared (on the bottom a guage with "detecting file systems" at 100%. Map of world and time zones. Then a small error window popped up, 12*? and an OK button. Cannot get rid of that error form, all stopped. Rebooted win 7 OK, looks like discs are still intact. Rebooted mint. Nothing in /dev/mapper. Used dmraid -ay again. Tried the install, same error message with 12*?. This time a click and it dissapeared. Could set the time zone. Clicked continue and I get a form "erase disk and install Linux Mint". Select drive: Serial ATA RAID isw_....... (stripe) - 12.0 GB Linux device-mapper (linear). And a similar choce for a 20 Gig "cache". Hmmm, looks like the SSD and the way it is split for windows. No sign of any other disk space. Clicked on the "advance partitioning tool: and after a long delay I am back at the "installation type" form. I note that the boot point and the "swap" type are not displayed on the partitions I created. I will search on, perhaps bite the bullet and try dmraid -E.
