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](http://askubuntu.com/questions/632452/where-can-i-install-ubuntu-if-i-have-4-primary-partitions) question and answer here. – Rod Smith Feb 17 '16 at 14:01
