i am trying to install on my new laptop, but the installer doesnt detect my partitions properly
my partitions are
- /dev/sda1: 1 megabyte
- /dev/sda2: 208 megabytes (used by Win7)
- /dev/sda3: 583840 megabytes (Win7 install)
- /dev/sda4: 56083 megabytes (recovery partition + tools + blank space)
basically my /sda4 partition is actually 3 partitions, one is the 20gb recovery partition for Win7 (which i dont want to delete), one is a ~100mb recovery tool partition (absolutely never going to delete) and a 30gb blank fat32 partition (which i want to install Kubuntu on). the last partition is fat32 because originally i couldnt even get the installer to let me format the partition, so i changed it to fat32 with the intention of reformatting anyway.
how do i separate these three partitions (on sda/4)?
