Describe your suggestion

In the Installations lesson, we point to this resource for getting dual boot set up: https://medium.com/linuxforeveryone/how-to-install-ubuntu-20-04-and-dual-boot-alongside-windows-10-323a85271a73.

A lot of learners run into confusion when they need to do a manual partition. And I'm confused about why we point to such a guide when the official Ubuntu guide doesn't require people to manually partition at all. The installer handles the partition with a slider in the UI. This feels far easier for folks new to this and would save folks from needing to deal with manual partitions.

@TheOdinProject/installations Is there a reason why we use this guide instead of the official Ubuntu one?
