I have Ubuntu 18.04.2 installed in the dual-boot mode along with Windows 10, and here is my current partition setup.
What I'd like to do is install Ubuntu 18.04.3 afresh while resizing my /home partition to, say, 4 GB (is this a reasonable size? I do not plan on storing any large files such as audio/video ones) and then combining the freed space with the 2.36 GB currently unallocated to create a shared NTFS partition.
What is my best (safest) course of action? Should I carry out the partition resizing and partition creation steps before I install Ubuntu 18.04.3? I believe I can do this by booting using a gparted live USB. Then, I could just install 18.04.3 on the existing / partition while formatting it and the newly resized /home. Is this the right way to do it?
Or will I get a chance to make these changes at the time of the installation of the OS? I have not clicked beyond this screen during the installation process and do not whether the above will be an option.
