Operating Systems Linux Ubuntu XP and Linux (Ubuntu) on same disk, Can I install Ubuntu on not-yet partitioned portion of disk? Post 302364106 by pludi on Thursday 22nd of October 2009 05:43:02 AM

200 GB should be enough for any Ubuntu installation. However, the 200 MB you mentioned in your original post wouldn't.

The difference between shrinking an existing Windows installation and installing into unpartitioned space is that you have 1 step less to do: shrinking the Windows partition. Otherwise it should be completely the same.
