How to partition correctly in order for UBUNTU to have the space I want it to have.

Asked by Kuriyaki

I'm confused about this step.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=6.png

There it mentions the new partition size is 95% which is 31.9GB for that particular computer.

Does that mean Ubuntu receives the remainding 5% or the 95%?

Last time I did this incorrectly, Ubuntu had 120 gigs and XP had 5gigs... :S
