Alastair's questions

I have an existing dual boot system Ubuntu 12.04 LTE and Windows 7 on a 1TB disk. This is partitioned as 50gb for Windows, 50gb for Linux and the rest as shared storage.

I would like to add an SSD drive to improve speed would it be possible/ easy to move the existing Windows and Linux partitions to the SSD?

Or would it be better to reinstall Linux alone on the SSD and still dual boot using the Windows 7 partition on the existing drive?

If I mount a Windows share using the "Places>Connect to Server..." option where is it mounted and is it always mounted at the same place?

I need to know the path so I can access it from the Terminal.

Have anyone got a Lexmark X4690 to work under Ubuntu? Or is the only option to install Windows on a VM?
