[Bug 1265121] Re: install crashes.. wrong HDD.. it doesn't have a Win7 install

[irvin]

I think I can do that..
does it need to be on the "C" HDD on a Win & system?
Can the Ubuntu installer do that for me, as did some older installs (Ubuntu
10.10 for example, when there was only one HDD in the machine ) ?
