i got laptop, , since love ubuntu want dual boot have on desktop. disk has 4 partitions, , understand that's as can have. need keep c:
partition, other 3? here's screenshot of partitions:
![]()
once figured out can rest.
download easybcd @ www.neosmart.com along win7 recovery disk
i'd create recovery/rescue cd using windows, ghost everthing as-is , burn dvd; shrink c:\ little, if desired;
use gparted eliminate d:\ , f:\ drives, formatting ext2 before partitioning; partition root (/) of 11-15gb depending on distro , use extended partiton remainder or of it; make logical partitions of /home , swap (at least) in extended partition
install easy bcd (may have format small system partition, use win7 recovery , easybcd) use win boot mgr choose os
did once on lenovo -- hp cause problems
best wishes!
