It's simple. In the "Linux World", when you're installing the system you must indicate what partition is going to be the most important, in what partition the system is going to be installed. It is important 'cause maybe you want to install the system in one partition and your data in the other.

To specify what partition you want to be the most important, click twice in the partition and in "mount point" type /

Can you help with this problem?
