Asked by
André
Hi,
I have a 500gb disk with windows xp sp2 install in first partition sda1 and opensolaris on sda2 and when I start the system, grub present me both os and they boot ok.
I still have 247gb free on the disk.
Now I download ubuntu 8.10 and try to install it but when I get to the partition the only option is to use all the disk or shrink window partition /sda1. What give. Why can I use the free space to install ubuntu. I try to create the partion prior to launching the intall program to no avail.
Why opensolaris install ok after xp and not ubuntu that is suppose to be so user friendly?
André
