I'm getting a new Lenovo G510 (or possibly Z500) in a few days, and was trying to decide how to manage the operating systems I'm going to install. What I would like to do is:
Now, given that I can get past all these problems, will the recovery partition that's made by Win7 have to be primary, or is logical enough? And does Win8 use the same partition, or delete it, or delete it and make a new one?
I realize that there are enough questions here to warrant several threads, but I would appreciate an answer to at least the ones in the first paragraph as fast as possible. I'll only have a few days with a fast internet connection to download everything I need.
Thanks in advance.
- Primary Partition - Ubuntu or Mint (Most Frequently Used)
- Primary Partition - Storage
- Extended Partition
- 2 logical partitions with Win7 and Win8
