Rep Power: 6 | Mountain goat. Sorry! Those are Ubuntu code names. They are related to animal names. See the list.

Rep Power: 6 | You can install ubuntu using Wubi. Even if some problem happened, you can simply uninstall Ubuntu like a normal windows application. The working will be a little slow though. You can install Ubuntu using Wubi in two different ways.
Wubi wizard is simple. Note: When you install Ubuntu using the ISO file. It will be deleted when you uninstall Ubuntu. So keep a backup of the ISO file in another drive/folder before installing Ubuntu. It will ask for keeping backup when you uninstall Ubuntu. 54634643.png 5476987687.png Last edited by Archer; 11-17-08 at 04:19 AM. |

Rep Power: 11 | Very nice post vishnu You can install ubuntu using wubi but as you already use linux so my suggestion says try to install ubuntu on other partition of hard drive as you can not feel the real ubuntu in windows if you need the real feel of ubuntu then install it as independent OS |

Rep Power: 6 | Thanks! Vibes. I installed Ubuntu in another partition. Clean. And if I want to remove Ubuntu all I have to do is delete the partition and fixmbr. [I know, there are other ways, but I am lazy]  Last edited by Archer; 11-17-08 at 01:44 PM. |
