I've installed window 7 with 2 partitions and kept nearly 100gb unpartitioned to install Ubuntu 12.04. While installing Ubuntu it has not been asked "how much swap space should be allocate", it simply picked up total unpartitioned space. Is it normal behavior ?, I've observed that partition info will be asking while installing Ubuntu as Primary OS instead of dual boot.

And another thing is Windows partitions are appearing under Ubuntu Devices and able to mount Windows partitions. How its happening without any extra effort or without installing applications ? Hope it won't create a issues for both OS data ?

I'm new to dual boot usage, So thought to know information from here.

Its totally Normal that Ubuntu takes all the unallocated space. Usually when clicking Install Alongside Windows, It configures it all for you.

The Answer To Your Second Question: Yes, Its Totally Normal and should not cause Any Issues.
