easiest method: created unallocated space from your current operating system. Pick "something else" during installation and pick the unallocated partition.– RinzwindAug 18, 2014 at 13:38

First of all, do you have any Windows installation to your computer ?
If yes, you can partition it during Ubuntu installation. You have to select "Something Else" when it asks you where to install Ubuntu.
Then, Ubuntu has a nice tool, with user friendly GUI to partition your hard disks.
