F16 dual boot installion error
hello friends, i am new to Linux, I want to try fedora 16, but i need a dual boot. i have 1tb hdd. having four partions; os win7 x64. i have deleted one partion (230 gb) and created unallocated space.
- total 931.51 GB
- system: 100 mb
- C: 232.78
- D: 232.88
- (E:)Unallocated : 232.88
- G: 232.88
now when i install via live usb, i cannot read the unallocated space. when i click "use free space" it gives error : not enough free space. 232gig is not enough! or it doesn't detects the unallocated space.
using the custom installation option.
sda
- sda1 : 0
- sda2 : 100
- sda3 : 223XXX(approx.)
- sda4: 75XXXX(approx. i think its d+e+f)
- free : 1 (WTH!)
i don't want to screw up my win 7, so i haven't tried anything yet. please advise asap.
just found out a bigger problem! i have a dynamic partition. so all the partitions are 'simple', and seen as all-primary. so i first need to convert the dynamic disk to basic disk. then make partitions and hopefully after this hard work the fedora will accept...is there any way that i could convert it without formatting and deleting my os? http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/833/capturequd.jpg/
