Default help needed regarding installing ubuntu 9.04

hi,
I am currently using vista OS and want to have to test ubuntu side by side.
I already have created a drive dediacted for ubuntu os. My question is "while installing ubuntu does it ask which drive i want to install it in?'.

yes it will show you a file adress tab where you need to fill c, d, e

its good to install kubuntu on either d or e if c already has much things on it cause kubuntu will partition too..

Please install using wubi installer, it will install ubuntu right within windows, as a program and you can uninstall any time without a problem. If you are dual-booting xp with vista, do the wubi installation from within vista.
