Topic: Unsure of which /dev/sda to select for a Lubuntu / Windows 7 side by side installation.


The only version of Lubuntu that I have hope of installing successfully is 15.10. However, there's still a problem. I partitioned my C: drive and called the new 30 GB partition "L" (for Lubuntu). But, at the final stage of installation, the available drives and partitions that Lubuntu shows are nothing like the ones Windows shows. I cannot figure out which /dev/sda partition corresponds to my Windows L partition.

The clearest way to show this is with the two attachments. I'd greatly appreciate if someone could tell me which /dev/sda is my Windows L.

(I assume that the 271.5 GB "free space" is my D: drive, although the size on Windows is 222 GB.)

Many thanks,

Steve
