This is correct install Ubuntu to /. BUT where are you actually placing /? Is it in the middle of a group of NTFS partitions?

Hi

thanks for reply

/ is not middle in the NTFS. actually, now have have made only three partition /, swap and /boot with / 100000 MB, swap 4000 MB and /boot 5000 MB

I have also followed this tutorial
http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2011/05/23...nal-hard-disk/

thanks in advance,

Summit

I just do /, SWAP, /home but others do /, /home, SWAP.
