It isn't really that complicated. There is a plus button to add partitions, and you click on each listed partition and can set where it should be mounted, what filesystem type it should have, and choose to format it or not ( if it already has that type ). The normal setup is to have one partition of type swap, and one partition of type ext4, mounted as the root directory ( / ). Some people like to have a smaller root partition and most of the space separate and mounted in /home. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJUlDrNAAoJENRVrw2cjl5RJnMIAJbKH2gaQ5TXBe/PHwOt+Db3 0KfgNHgDqCLXOUzG49HcLys+LR7nxsUMoGQbpcAOEIs8JHPFUx/ZaHUrzWXA8rY0 SoC/dmKa5yS3pofZkIcPGAlBrIas003vrnN2KAcw7UJ5I7DhnHQ5tDPFG3s9KEM5 yh+QrDSwPhvMnVsRbZILgfpTAbajNeZBgmpZ6DBgAlt/fXaPSF2i+vvn+x+28Ueo O8NqCpq6PBkGporz5E3qix7SQaiGKf2jgb7TBHMlppc7UfbKLiMlrvttgwpr7sur 8QQYYi+iZ3vajbwjkyOFlfXU93ngdorWe0bZWYwbYBpgAPeZhC/m2HNZVVRUPrs= =nFf4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1403994 Title: Installer crashes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1403994/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
