    Yup, last time I installed Ubuntu it was that, one partition. So now, what has @henfredemars got “not right”?

      That you have to manually specify partitions in Windows?

      You literally don’t have to create a single one, only point it at empty space or a partition you’re willing to have it delete for space. It handles the rest. Does it matter how many partitions it creates?

      Did you install that Ubuntu on a legacy BIOS system or maybe one with an existing EFI partition? Because I can’t see how you could have a modern OS without at least two partitions.

        The point was that you have to manually remove them, not create

        Or maybe I missed the EFI partition when run gparted after installation, it being much smaller than rest of the drive
