[Bio-Linux] Installing bio-linux

[Darren Parker]

Hello

Many thanks for all the help!

Turned out that windows was taking up 4 partitions - which I managed to
sort out using the ubuntu forums and then the install from the stick was
easy (option for installing them side by side was there).

Many thanks to all of you!
