how to shring vista Business hard drive on laptop
I want to shrink the vista hard drive so I can install kubuntu 8.04
Did it once but can't remember how. Any help would be much appreciater. |
I have been able to do this by clicking on the items is th "Help and Support" Item.
All goes well on Kubuntu installation. |
Have you booted your machine with Kubuntu CD in the drive? Use the partitioning wizard during configuration to shrink the vister drive.

No, I did the shrinking in Vista. I then inserted the 8.04 disk in the drive and booted it as a live disk.After it came in and all looked OK, I installed it without a hitch.
I lost my XP a couple of years ago when I tried to install 6.04 and the grub screwed up a hidden XP file and I had to beg,borrow to get new install XP disks and I didn't want to take the chance here. Thanks for the suggestion, I shall keep it in mind. |
