<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been asked to install ubuntu in a computer

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>start. I know it preferrable to have
a separate hard drive but am not sure if installing in a separate
partition</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>on the single hard drive that already has
Windows will do the trick. There's plenty of room on
that</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>single HD for another partition or
two. An external HD is not an option.</FONT></DIV>
