Refreshment
Regular
Hello everybody.
Will be installing Ubuntu 9.04 on a fresh SATA harddrive.
So there will be 2 drives on the PC. The old one contains Windows. I want to know how to make the machine prompt me asking for what OS to boot up. So, do i tell Ubuntu to put the GRUB (is this the correct term?) on the HD containing Windows?
Any advice about what partitions to create? Right now thinking about: Swap (primary), Root (Logical) and Home (primary).
Whats the difference between a Logical Partition and a Primary partition? I did investigate, yet i don't quiet get it.
Btw, i'm not doing it right now. That's (hopefully) tomorrow.
Thanks so much for any advice.
