BT4 install with only 2 primary partitions
hi everybody,
A lot of new laptops come with 2 primary partitions preconfigured.
1 for Windows and 1 for the recovery of that Windows system.
So how about we create an installation guide (like the excellent original guide for 3 partitions on a clean disk)
harddrive = /dev/sda
existing windows partitions are /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2
I think the beginning is pretty similar to the instructions
for 3 partitions, but if you could double check this, that would be
greatly appreciated.
fdisk /dev/sda

size : minimum 2 x Ram size for linux swap e.g. +4G (if you have 2GB of RAM)
n

size : whatever you want your backtrack partition to be

82 (set partition 3 to linux swap)
a

How to complete this, i am a completely in the dark.
any help is greatly appreciated.
