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.</span></span></p> <p class="p0" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; line-height: 114%;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The clearest way to show this is with the two attachments.
