I have a new Laptop with 500GB hardisk size. I want to install 3 kind of Linux distribution. The first Linux will be Ubuntu.

Now, I want that the installation of Ubuntu will take over only 100 gb and I don't know how to do it.

I load the machine from the disk and I choose 'install Ubuntu' and I wait on the 'installation type' screen.

I chose the option of creating or resize the partition by myself - but I don't know what to do next.

please any help

I assumed that there is no OS installed before. You can use GParted to split your HDD into several partitions:

  1. Boot into your Ubuntu installer (USB/DVD)
  2. Select Try Ubuntu without Installing
  3. From the Dash, type 'GParted'. And you can start splitting your HDD from here.

Here is my disk partition looks like: I'm dual booting Windows and Ubuntu, also separate / and /home
