[01:54] <Newguy> hello all
[01:55] <Newguy> It has been years since I used IRC.
[01:55] <Newguy> Is it possible to have someone help me with my Ubuntu Studio instilation ?
[01:56] <Unit193> Might be easier to ask the question, and this is the Studio support channel, yep.
[01:58] <Newguy> I have 1 Hard Drive in my Laptop, a 500gb. I installed windows 7 on it. I created a partition of 90gig, I installed windows on that.
[01:59] <Newguy> I created another partition of 40 gig, thats were I want to install my Ubunto Studio
[02:00] <Newguy> I now have about +-368gb in the finale partition.
[02:01] <Newguy> I loaded ubuntu studio in my USB, im in the installer. There is no option to install alongside windows 7. I selected the more option, this allows for more control over the HDD and it's partition.
[02:01] <Newguy> How do I install Ubuntu Studio on the previously mentioned 40gb partition?
[02:02] <Unit193> The "more option" didn't show the different partitions?  How new is the computer, is it UEFI based?
[02:02] <Newguy> It is showing partitions, the laptop is about 3-4 years old.
[02:03] <Newguy> I am a little new at this kind of thing, only recently moving into the field of Linux etc.
[02:05] <Unit193> OK, well it should have detected your already installed systems and offered to install alongside of them, but you can still do it the advanced method if you'd like.
[02:05] <Unit193> !partitioning
[02:08] <Newguy> all drives are loaded as ntfs and I turned the partition into physical drives. The problem I had before went as such: Installed Zorin Os, installed alongside windows 7. I then went into windows and the noticed the 368gb partition was not showing. I downloaded an app, running it from USB in windows. I deleted, created then formated the 368gb partition. After that, I restarted. Then problems began, Grub issues, I couldnt boot into
[02:08] <Newguy> Put the windows USB in the drive attempted to repair for booting purposes... no windows found.
[02:09] <Newguy> Checking the link now...
