Hey, folks.
I'm building a new PC and plan to install Ubuntu 10.10 ONLY on this machine. I do not want Windows on any partitions. OK, I might run Windows 7 in Virtual Box for games, but I don't plan on wasting a lot of time with that until I find a joystick replacement for keyboard/mouse control.
To save money, I only bought a 1 TB HDD.
What, in your opinion, is the best way to partition this drive?
Should I just select the parameters Ubuntu will set during the installation process, or do some extra-special manual partitioning?
Yes, I'm a n00b :-)
Thanks for your help!
Steve
