Thanks! Manually handling the partitions is very intimidating in Ubuntu/Debian, so I'm glad to have a video that shows how to do it properly.

[alfecogroup]

[iliassbendidia]

Thank you so much !! But I would like to give an advice for the size that you get to / 20 because is the most used for software and installation

[iamadityavaishy]

By the way, please use you original human voice to interact with the public. It makes more impact.

The only video that makes sense, the only problem is if you already have 2 primary partitions you should go with logical because hard can only have 3 main there are tools to use after in windows to set windows main & boot with the windows menu.

[zuikoten]

I am not given rhe option to erase disk and install ubuntu

[rauankhamza]

Hey! I followed your steps exactly, but then it gave me an error, I could not even power off, so I had to do it manually. When I turned it back on I have not booting option because I previously deleted my windows setup. What do I do?

[prashanthb]

I though EFI partition was always required.

[faizanbhat]

I am not getting "something else" option in installation type what to do

[phaninderkumar]

What's the use of SWAP is it mandatory?
And after installation done can we shrink or extend disk partitions?

[thatsinteresting]

is there any way to control the partition size initially

[TheNightKiing]

hey mate I have 256GB of disc space prior installing Ubuntu 21.04, The video I was folllowing only recommended 30GB to run Ubuntu, I wasnt able to partition space for The remaining space to use for downloading and documents. Is there a way to partition again without reinstalling Ubuntu?

[Jaimebg]

Hi. Sure you recommend setting all partitions as primary? Why swap and home are not logical?

[ronwatkins]

Probably a dumb question, but im new to Ubuntu, having come from CentOS. When I boot up ubuntu server ISO, I get a CLI interface not a GUI. Im having difficulty with partitioning the boot disk, where can I go to find out how to do it via the CLI?

[siddhuneehal]

is the same thing safe to do on a virtual machine?
can all the changes be reverted back and the virtual machine safely deleted later if needed?
