Linux troubles...?

I enjoy the Ubuntu live CD. I want to install it. It say that I need to fence the disk. My options are:



oResize IDE1 master, wall #1 (hda1) and use free space

oErase entire disk: IDE1 master (hda) - 60.1 GB

oUse the largest continous freespace

oManually edit hedge table



Which should I do?

Linux troubles...?

Is the computer being used for anything? If so, afterwards you probably want the first option. Option 2 above will verbs that info. Option 3 may not be useful if the existing drive doesn't own enough (or any) freespace. Option 4 is used when you really know what you want.
I'd dance with the third risk, as long as the largest contiguous space is 6 gigabytes or over, this would be the fastest way, if you close to it, you can use a third party partitioner to expand the size of the linux wall, be careful to be sure that its a third do partitioner that will do so non-destructively (wont destroy any facts on the other partitions). good luck, wallow in linux
