So I have dual booted ubuntu 16 and windows 10 on a laptop, and I want to completely wipe both of those operating systems and install ubuntu 17. I have a live boot on a flash drive. Can I just boot into my live boot, use the partition manager to delete all the partitions, merge all the partitions, and install ubuntu like that? Or would that lead to some complications?
Completely wiping all partitions and clean install Ubuntu can be done fully automatically by the Ubuntu installer. When reaching the screen where you have to select the Installation type, select the first option
Erase disk and install Ubuntu
This deletes all partitions and uses the entire drive to install Ubuntu.
There is no need for you to delete partitions before starting the installation.
