mkay, heres the scoop. im dual booting kubuntu for the first time with windows xp home. i have 2 drives, a 160 gig C: drive with all my windows data and programs. the other drive is a 300 gig F: drive which holds all my torrents, tv shows, music, podcasts, etc. i created partitions especially for kubuntu (swap and main install) on my F: drive.
when i get to the "Prepare mount points" section of the install (after choosing to make my own partition table), it wants me to mount my windows partitions as "/media/sda1,/media/sda2,/media/sdb1,/media/sdb2." It then gives me the option to reformat each partition (im assuming i uncheck those :P). I still want to view my windows data from linux, so here goes:
Will mounting my windows partitions to /media not harm my windows install and data? is it safe
?
