Binary package hint: yelp

The install program will not let you install Ubuntu side by side with winXP on the first harddrive /dev/sda. When choosing "use the largest free space" . if the second harddrive /dev/sdb is larger with free space. You should be able to install ubuntu on the first harddrive along side WinXP without touching the second drive. tired the install twice both times it wanted to install Ubuntu on the second drive with out the option of installing and the first drive.
