Replace Fedora Partition With Ubuntu

rated 0 times [ 3] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 2753 / 1 Year ago, wed, december 28, 2022, 2:00:41

So I tried installing Fedora along side Windows 7 and after a week of using Fedora, I can't stand it and I'm switching back to Ubuntu. I'm unsure of how to install Ubuntu in place of Fedora.

Below is the screen shot of the partitions I have. (Sorry for the low quality, taken from my phone) I'm not sure exactly which device I should be clicking on to install.

My gut says I should select the root of ext4 to install. I don't see anywhere that I can delete those partions, only formatting is an option.

Suggestions?

Fedora is using LVM and by default the live CD does not have LVM installed. Furthermore, gparted does not manage LVM either.

LVM takes a physical partition and divides it into logical divisions.

Scroll down in the list of partitions and identify which partition was used for Fedora. You can delete or use that physical partition although you will also need to make a swap partition for Ubuntu.
