I am in need of assistance for Partition and File Format procedures for the following Config;
I have 8GB of Ram, 240GB on a SSD and a extra 2 TB on a second "Platter" SATA3 HDD. I have partitioned the SSD as follows; 120 GB NTFS and installed Windows 7. Second - remainder of SSD is about 68 GB partitioned as well
with NTFS. I have the LIVE USB of ZorinOS 8 running fine on a 8GB stick. I can boot - start the installation yet ZORIN wants to install to the 2 TB HDD and partition it; it will not see the second partition of the SSD. Bottom choice for "Something else" does show that partition but I can not install to the /SDA3 partition of choice. If ZORIN just simply can not be installed to NTFS Partition - I can simply purchase a 120GB SSD. I do not see details in the installation instructions regarding specific Partitioning procedures.
Any help appropriated
