I'm trying to have Ubuntu and Windows 7 dualboot. I couldn't shrink the partitions while in Windows, nor could I do it in GParted.
I didn't get the option to install Ubuntu alongside Windows, so I had to manually adjust the partitions myself.
This is what I've arranged them as.
Is there anything else I need to do or can I hit install?
I've backed up my HDD in case of an issue.
Thanks in advance.

, so where's your Windows? That will be an NTFS partition. – terdon Jul 16 '19 at 16:01sudo parted -l
