I hope I can become a productive member of the forum! Second, I have a problem. The PC I have runs Windows Vista and will have to continue running it because there are some other people in the house who aren't fans of Linux. When I installed Ubuntu, I think it allocated a certain amount of the hard drive for Ubuntu to use. The only problem is, I can't access things like my pictures and music because it's on the Windows portion. It seems like a real waste to just copy it over to the other hard drive portion, and things have to stay where they are on the Windows side, so, how can I fix this? -Thanks

Have you checked Places in Menu? Open Terminal and execute this Code: sudo fdisk -l df -h Post output here. * Its small L in fdisk -l. __________________ It takes a lot of time to be a genius, you have to sit around so much doing nothing, really doing nothing. - Gertrude Stein New Users: Read This First
