   I am using 6.06 because I have tried running both 6.06   
   and 6.10 with live cd and had trouble getting 6.10 to   
   boot up properly.   
      
   I made the original post because my laptop came preloaded   
   with Vista but I did not get an actual OS disk, just a   
   recovery disk that I cannot use to create partitions.   
   (I was told by customer service that I would get an   
   actual OS disk, and I went off on them today because   
   they gave me something different, but that's a different   
   fight that's still ongoing).   
      
   Since I cannot create an extra partition beforehand I   
   want to see if the Ubuntu installation will take care   
   of that and not mess up both OS installations.
