Hello can someone give me short tutorial how to:   Remove Windows 7 from my dual boot system (Ubuntu/Windows7) Let me use free space as new partition for data (so I don't need to extend Ubuntu itself here) Remove windows 7 option from boot screen   Update:  Thanks to Lekensteyn answer I successfully deleted windows. Now I created new partition (formatted to ext4), but I can not use it. I cannot copy files there, only as root.  Also when booting, Ubuntu complains it didn't find /windows partition (of course it didn't, I removed it). I feel like I should update some tables or what, any ideas?

I booted from the Ubuntu ISO which I burned on a disk and installed Ubuntu, and chose the option to replace windows 7 with Ubuntu, now the version of windows 7 I was running was an illegal cracked version and I already had tried to get rid of it without booting into the actual OS and after many attempts was unsuccessful. Now did installing Ubuntu and choosing the option of replacing windows 7 actually solve my problem and did it wipe the previous windows OS EVERY LITTLE PART OF IT.

I am running Ubuntu 14.04.2 and I want to format my disk for another operating system (Windows 10).  My desire to do this stems from a recent problem I have been having with installing the new OS. I try to boot from a live DVD (which I have confirmed is working), but my computer does enter the Windows 10 installation setup.  So, I am hoping that completely wiping the disk will solve this issue. Ideally, I want to do this with my only resources being Ubuntu and an internet connection. I can't connect the hard drive to another computer, and it would be difficult for me to have to burn a disc for any reason.  Thank you.

I want to uninstall Ubuntu, so I need to delete its partition.  I saw that many people asked this before. For example: . I followed the instructions there and here's a screenshot of the terminal after typing the suggested command (df):    But this doesn't tell me anything...   This has also been discussed before  and the answer was: EFI and primary. But I have a lot of primary partitions and I'm not sure which one to delete.  Here's a screenshot of Disk Management in Windows:    Here's a GParted screenshot:    So can anybody tell me which the Ubuntu partitions are? (I numbered them from left to right, so to make it easy just tell me numbers please)

I'm getting a PC with Windows and I want to dual boot using Ubuntu as my primary OS.  I want to create a Home partition to store all my files and hopefully be able to access them on Windows 7 without having to manually mount the partition or anything.  I want to know what kind of partition should I create and if I can share my Home partition to simplify matters.  Thanks

I have Ubuntu 15.10 and Windows 10 dual-booted, but I want to reinstall Ubuntu in the same partition without making any changes or causing problems in the dual boot option and without removing Windows.  Is it possible? Any guide on how to do it?

I want to install a new Ubuntu on a drive where a previous Ubuntu system is already installed beside Windows7.  The first option says that only Ubuntu will be replaced.   The second says that all will be erased.  I only want Ubuntu replaced with the  new one while keeping Windows7 untouched.  Is the first option (“Erase Ubuntu16.10 and reinstall”) the good one in this case?

I had Windows 7 installed on my laptop, I installed Ubuntu and chosen the option to delete everything. But when I clicked that, it deleted my windows 7 partitions.  C: Windows  E: Documents F: Important Files   When doing a full wipe with Windows 7 it does not touch any other partitions just the C: drive. Now I have all the partitions merged together and I have lost my files. I have some really important files in the partitions that was deleted E:, F: is there anyway I could get them back.  I am new to Ubuntu and now I am stuck on it till I try and find my files back and change my partition to NTFS so windows can install.

So basically as it stands I have a laptop which has no cd/dvd drive, and I don't have a usb drive.  The laptop has windows 7 installed with ubuntu 11.04 installed through wubi.  What I want to do is remove windows completely, and make ubuntu the only OS installed on the system.  Is there a way to do this without re-installing ubuntu? (i.e. can I take my wubi install away from windows?)  or is there a way to from inside ubuntu have it run the ubuntu iso somehow so I can just wipe the system and install it fresh? (even if it means I need to have an e.g. 2gb partition just for the image to reside in).

I have recently installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my dual boot PC with Windows 8.1. On Ubuntu I have seen a 524 MB drive popped up.  As I take a look at it, its not swap or anything. Its contents are as follows:   Can I delete the partition and extend the 104 GB partition? Or I should leave it as it is?

I want to completely remove Ubuntu from my system. But if I delete the partition, the Grub files will be deleted and that will leave me "Bootloader-less". How can I workaround this?
