Dear group,
I am new to Linux, I have some queries and get some problems when installing this OS:
I wonder if there is any problem if I install windows and linux on the same drive?
When I create a new drive (such as from drive E), I can observe its existence from windows as F drive, however I could not see it during installation linux.
I install linux core 6 from DVD, after I arrive at Welcome screen part and move to Disk Partitioning, here there are 4 options:
- remove all partitions on selected drives and create default layout
- remove linux partitions on selected drives and create default layout (default)
- use free space...
- create custom layout
I try with last 3 options, and get the error as belows:
1. error partitioning
Could not allocate requested partitions as promary partitions.
No enough space left to create partitions as primary partitions
2. automatic partitioning errors:
...You have not defined a root partition (/) which is required for installation of fedora core to continue
this can happen if there is not enough space on your hard drive for the installation...
However, if I choose the first option, then it ok but there is not the option for me to choose to install it on drive F, but drive E which i do not want (as I explain before, the drive F is not displayed), as its suggestion of this option, all my data in drive E will be lost.
I really need some help or guidance to overcome this problem.
Any suggestion will be appreciated
best regards,
Duong Van Yen
