I'm facing some difficulties installing Ubuntu in dual-boot with 10.

This is my actual partition schematic:

How can I install Linux?

    Sorry, but there are, like, thousands of Ubuntu installation tutorials around the web (including some tens right here in AskUbuntu). A quick google search should lead yout o Ubuntu installation and even post-installation. – Eduardo Cola Feb 15 '16 at 13:43

    Have you looked at http://askubuntu.com/questions/221835/installing-ubuntu-on-a-pre-installed-windows-with-uefi – Dennis Feb 15 '16 at 13:44
  • Specifically what difficulties are you facing? – Organic Marble Feb 15 '16 at 13:49
  • It looks more like a BIOS/MBR install, not new UEFI. My laptop already has 4 primary partitions: how can I install Ubuntu? http://askubuntu.com/questions/149821/my-laptop-already-has-4-primary-partitions-how-can-i-install-ubuntu – oldfred Feb 15 '16 at 14:38
  • Concerning Dennis's link, that's to a page describing a UEFI-based installation; but the posted partition layout has no ESP, so the computer almost certainly uses BIOS, not UEFI. Thus, it's not a duplicate of that question. That said, Eduardo's quite correct that the Internet is littered with tutorials covering this question. – Rod Smith Feb 17 '16 at 13:58

There are a lot of ways to install Ubuntu along side windows.Please do a brief search on google for it. But you can refer below points to achieve so

  • Choose one drive where you want to install Ubuntu ( Since Ubuntu doesn't require much of space , you can choose the drive which is of the minimum space.20 to 30 GB will be enough.
  • Since Ubuntu can read NTFS file system, you won't require to format any other drive.You can always store and access your data from Ubuntu in any windows ( NTFS) drive
  • The drive that you will choose for Ubuntu installation withh be converted into ext* format ,which is not readable by Windows.
  • Once to do the installation, on restart you will be welcomed by Ubuntu boot load screen since it has high priority , there you can choose for your desire OS.

  • My problem is with Windows 10. It doesn't allow me to use some spaces. If I shrink my D:\ . Then on the setup it appears " unusable " and I'm not able to use. – marco Feb 15 '16 at 15:03

    Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! ;-) Please never tell people to "google for it". That is not an answer! – Fabby Feb 15 '16 at 23:54
  • @dn-ʞɔɐqɹW Sure sir I will keep that in mind from now onwards. :) – Amrendra Kumar Feb 16 '16 at 06:55
  • Some questions are so basic or common that "Google for it" is an appropriate response. That said, the extra issue identified by marco in the first comment for this question is more specific, and deserves reference to this question and answer here. – Rod Smith Feb 17 '16 at 14:01
