i am trying to install Ubuntu on my existing Kubuntu HDD, but, i received an unexpected error, free space unusable (61120Mb)
i personally don’t know why this error occurred, because, i only have 1 primary partition & an extended partition containing everything else (obviously excluding /boot)
please help if you can (again)
BTW: i’m currently on Ubuntu liveCD, and obviously posting a screenshot didn’t work successfully, so, i’ll try to describe the situation
i created a / (size: 2048Gb) partition and creation of further partition is not possible,
my partitions:[ul][]hda1 = /boot - 98Mb - the only primary partition (my original Kubuntu Gutsy)[]hda5 = kbun / - 17125Mb[]hda6 = /home (kbun) - 10478Mb[]hda7 = /vm - 31453Mb - all my vm’s[*]hda8 = /spr - 31453Mb - basically i put it in there if i don’t know what else to do with it[/ul]this is on a 160Gb HDD

Ah, well I’ll admit that I’m left clueless. I mean, you could always remove EVERYTHING and start over, but I dont think that’s what you want to do and neither is it the proper solution. I will keep looking around to see if I can help you more successfully, but in the mean time maybe if we’re lucky someone like AT will stop by.
