Doing some remodeling in the house and wondering what is the correct way of doing flooring in the following situation. I plan on knocking out the wall between the kitchen and the dinning area. The dining area has carpet and the kitchen has linoleum. The linoleum has a 1/4" board underneath it. I am planning on pulling out the carpet and linoleum and laying down either wood or laminate wood flooring. Is the proper way to put down 1/4 board on the carpet side to level it out or to rip up the 1/4 wood on linoleum side to level it out?

Thanks in advance everyone. CP never disappoints.
