So I am in the middle of the installation of ubuntu 15.10 and I need to setup the partitions for swap and ubuntu. I windows disk management I set aside 70GB of free space for it. How do I make sure that it is using that free space for the partition?

 

EDIT: Got the swap partition created. I do need to pick a file type for my main ubuntu partition now.

 

EDIT 2: Picked ext4.

 

This thread can be closed.

 

Thank You,
