Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am planing to remove my windows completely and planning to install ONLY Ubuntu on my laptop from scratch. I want to make 3 different partitions other than the /home ( As it was in windows D: E: F:) I already know how to give swap,root,ESP,home partitions, Can anyone tell how to make 3 more partitions of ext4 format(basically i need to store data on em like i did on windows) and should it be primary or logical and which directory to allot. Also if anyone may help me with how windows parition scheme and ubuntu parition schemes are different. I need the theory cuz I am a bit curious.)
