If you installed OS then you should have noticed the step to edit disk partitions. What have you done ? installed them alongside ? Erased windows partition before ? Usually a partition 2g for swap , 50g for / and rest available space for /home is enough.

Do you have free space to create partition or want to resize existing? Ubuntu Live Cd can help you, boot from it, run gparted and you are able to do many things, all what you need with partitions. Live CD can be written to DVD, or USB by program uunetbootin. Gparted live cd is alternative, you can download it directly from uunetbootin and write to usb disk.
If you have free space where you want create partition, just install gparted and run it.
In gparted choose a disk to operate with. Choose partition to resize, change size and apply changes. Or choose free space, create partition, apply changes.

You can not resize partition from you boot. Need some other ubuntu with gparted to do everything. Make a bootable usb with gparted, boot from it and you will be able to unmount and resize. after resize - create new one as you wish
