@michel Duhurt You are welcome, glad it worked for you. @Broomer68 That was one of the reasons I forgot to mention as not allowing for a conversion. If you don't need more space on that recovery partition, you could shrink it using the partition editor in the livecd, and using that space for the Ubuntu installation. I should warn you that it could result in loss of recovery functionality or worse (don't I know that, it's become something of a yearly occurrence for me to mess up my hard disks)
On a completely unrelated note, I just noticed that the google chrome browser has an entry in it's spelling dictionary for ubuntu, telling me to replace it with Ubuntu. -- vfat : wubi 8.04.1-rev506 kernel upgrade fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252900 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
