Ok so I'm setting up an XP/Vista/Ubuntu boot for the first time.
Installed XP. Set up and formatted partitions for Vista and Ubuntu.
Installed Vista from within XP
Booted into Ubuntu.
Now, I'm at the partition window in Ubuntu. I plan to resize this partition, allocating 10gb for Ubuntu and the rest for shared storage space.
So I setup the 10gb partition, choosing ext 3 and the mount point as "/". I also setup the 1gb of swap space for good measure, even though I have more thna enough ram.
Now for the remaining space I want to use for file storage.
I selected ntfs for the "use as" option. My question is, what to I indicate as a mount point for the remaining space that I want to allocate for storage? The options are "/dos" and "/windows".
At the moment, the only partition that shows a mount point in the window is the 10 gb one I plan to use for Ubuntu, which is "/". Is this correct or do i need to select mount points for everything?
