Hi,

Since there is no Linux on Mac category, I figured it would still make sense to post it here.

In the first step of Ubuntu installation on Parallels Desktop, the installation tells me "This computer currently has no detected operating systems."

The options are "Erase disk and install Ubuntu" and "Something else".

Is it gonna wipe out my whole Mac hard drive if I choose the first option? Or is it limited to the scope of the virtual machine? Note: I haven't defined any size for this virtual machine. All I did was start the VM from the iso image.

Thanks in advance. Regards
