Hello! I am newbie in computer things. I have installed yesterday Ubuntu Linux distribution on one of my three partitions. And I have dual boot now. But, I have problem with partition on which is installed Linux. I cannot see this partition at all from Windows XP and this is very weird to me. Can you help me with this? Thanks!

Hello! Please, do not panic. With you partition everything is just fine and it is normal that you cannot see it from Windows XP operating system. Windows and Linux uses completely different files systems and you can see Windows from Linux, but you cannot see Linux from Windows. I hope that now this is clear to you.
