Question #78626 on gparted in ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+question/78626
Tom proposed the following answer: Hi again When i said "I would also stick with 32bit Ubuntu, the main advantage is when you need to use over 3.5Gb ram" i meant "the main advantage with the 64bit version is if you need to use over 3.5Gb ram" but of course 64bit version might also be an advantage when you're using vmware. Always before installing any version of linux i would try to run a LiveCd session just to see how it looks. I might then compare that with LiveCd's of a couple of other versions but mostly because i have quite a few of these cds now. I kinda assume that what you are doing now is an experiment to see how it goes before risking doing something really wrong with the newer larger hard-drive. It seems like a good plan :) If you did this with Windows and then plugged the test hard-drive into a totally different machine and tried to boot-up from it you'd get a lot of grumbles but with linux you might only have some issue about the graphics card maybe and everything else would probably be fine :) Not that it's recommended. A fresh install is usually better ;) -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
