part (x): 80GB NTFS Ubuntu
Part (x): 200GB NTFS Win 7
rest setup as data sector or free space. You can change the 80 to 120 (true 120GB) incase you think you are going to install many programs on ubuntu. If you are going to run a lot of programs on ubuntu, then I would run two partitions both at NTFS split equally (roughly 160 GB each)
I want to give Linux as much dedicated space as possible since Win7 will be a secondary OS. Storage space for Win7 will not be a problem since the computer has 3 other NTFS 1Tb drives. One of them has a 75gig WinXP OS partition. All other space is for storage. Would 100Gb be sufficient for Win7?
