On my desktop I have two partition containing both windows8, one of them is an expired trial. I'm a windows based developer and I want to learn even some Linux development stuff, so I want to install Ubuntu and overwrite that expired Window 8 version. At present when my computer boot there is a dual boot that let me to choose from which win8 start. Can I use the same dual boot to choose between windows and ubuntu? Do I have to remove that dual boot ( don't know how, but will investigate ) before installing Ubuntu? Can I reuse the already present boot manager and must overwrite the useless partition with Ubuntu?

Personally, i whould remove the expired windows partition and use wubi from the good one to install ubuntu, this way you won't have to worry about grub or annything you dont have the old windows and you whould even be able to delete ubuntu from the software manager in the working windows !
