My current distro is Xubuntu 12.04 LTS. I have tested the latest LST version 14.04 in VBox and it works fine. But I need to sort out my HD first. Here is a link to a screenshot of my HD. http://www.pamneil.com/temp/Screenshot.png As you can see it is fully allocated. sda1 an old version of Linux sda6 my current distro Xubuntu 12.04 sda2 another old version of Linux. Here is Plan A Stage 1 Delete sda1 delete sda2 Resize sda6 This should give me plenty of unallocated space. Stage 2 Install the new version as a dual boot with v12.04. This way I keep v12.04 so that I can check up on it as I need to. I do have a back up of my home folder on an external HD but this is to make extra sure. I notice that sda1 and sda2 are the only primary partitions. Can I assume that v14.04 will install as a primary and anyway does it matter? Can anyone tell me if this plan is sensible (or even feasible)? Any help gratefully received. If I am advised that my ideas are silly I do have a Plan B.
