I tried to follow the Ubuntu tutorial on the wiki but it is very confusing. No matter how I interpret it, Ubuntu will not work with the Windows 7 bootloader using EasyBCD 1.7.2. Would some kind person please rewrite and repicture the tutorial, or remove it completely.

- The text tells us to use ext3, but the images show that reiserfs is being used. I could only find ext3-journaled. Is that the same thing as ext3 or is different (as in HFS and HFS+journaled)?
- The text implies that we should use the /dev/sda1 format for selecting the bootloader location, but the image shows the format as (hd0,1). Which one is right?
- Should Ubuntu be installed to a Logical or Primary partition?
- Further down the tutorial, the EasyBCD screengrabs imply that we should boot from the Ubuntu swap file. That cant be right can it?
