751136	2009-02-24 22:35:00	Hello i've successfully installed Ubuntu Linux but whenever it loads it tells me that there is no root file system defined and that i have to use the partioning menu. Is there some way I can do this and still use the other programs and documents i have on Windows? And what do i need to partition?	LarsJohann (13010)
751137	2009-02-24 22:51:00	And do i have to reinstall Ubuntu after i partition my drive?	LarsJohann (13010)
