Is your 20 gigs free space part of the drive partitions you're using
with Windows, or something separate.

If it's part of a current Windows partition, you'd need to shrink the
current partition down (which can be done without destroying data, but
the risk is still there).  Then you'd create new partitions for Linux in
the freed space.

If your free space is really spare drive space, and it's not showing up,
that's another issue to diagnose.
