Hello
I hope you will be able to advise, as this is my first EFI install of
Ubuntu :)
My Asus N56VB has a lot of partitions already on the drive. i am
wondering if I can just wipe them?
I've followed this guide by someone else:
http://code.paulk.fr/article13/asus-n56vb-s3055h-laptop-and-debian-installation
My idea was to manually create the partitions, beacuse the 256MB /boot
always fills up too quickly on my current install.
I would create /boot as 4GB
Do I need to retain any of the existing partitions? I hope BIOS is not
relying upon efi or other partitions to boot..
