How can I do?

I had already built a debian GUN/Linux system!
fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 19269 154778211 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 19270 19457 1510110 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 19270 19457 1510078+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
But now I want to install Ubuntu to build double system!
Who can tell me how could I do step by step!
Thanks

The general idea I think is that you have to convert your ext3 linux partition to ext2, then resize it (i.e. shrink it), then convert it back to ext3. Then you can create a new partition in the free space. Check out this link (there's a couple of links in the thread that will give you step by step instructions). Just be sure to backup all important data before you try it!
