(If you think it is necessary after the kernels have been removed) and #3 adding the Windows XP from my CD (picking the place to put it and a boot that it will ask for about 3/4 way into the install) Will they all show in GRUB so I can open them? Thanks for all the help today. I found a set of four books on Linux in my old files that I will read.

Grub shows the following: ubuntu Which opens Kubuntu 16.04 ubuntu advanced memory test memory test ubuntu 15.04 sdb7 Advanced sdb7 ubuntu 16.04 sdb8 Advanced sdb8 Does this help any? I could have left Windows if I had known that but it did not show in Grub and I could not open it. I already formatted and moved the windows to ext4 as instructed in an earlier Email. I still have the windows disk. Looking above is the Ubuntu 16.04 running on the 2.00GiB sdb8 . That may be why I have little space. Can I get rid of the Ubuntu 15.04 and move the ubuntu from sdb8. If I do that could I get instructions on reloading the window. from my disk. I really appreciate all the help. My buddy, Robbie , is probably looking down at me from Heaven and saying "Dummy you should know how to do that.

Do you realise that removing the Windows partition will not give you more space on your ubuntu partition as that is not even on the same disk? Windows is in sda1 and ubuntu is in sdb8 Colin </blockquote> </blockquote> <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> </blockquote> </body> </html>
