    Installing Ubuntu Fast and Easy

    Installing Ubuntu Fast and Easy By: Linux​

    Some Background Information on Ubuntu:​


    Ubuntu has been rated the most popular Linux Distro around.
    It is completely free and is open source.
    It is a very good Linux Distro for new users who want to try out linux.
    It is easy to install and easy to use.



    What this Guide will teach you:​

    There is two ways to Install Ubuntu:
    You could download the ISO and mount it ( or burn )
    An easier and faster way is using Wubi Installer
    Wubi installer installs Ubuntu for you in a fast and easy way
    that anyone can understand.
    I will be teaching you how to install Ubuntu using Wubi Installer.


    Steps for Wubi Installer:​


    Step 1: Go to
    Code:
    http://wubi-installer.org/

    Step 2: Once you have loaded the site, click on this icon:

    Step 3: Save to file to your desktop and run it.

    Step 4: You must pick your settings for Ubuntu

    Step 5: Once you have picked your settings, the installation will start

    Notice the speed is pretty fast.
    This is a lot quicker and easier to setting up Ubuntu for your computer.

    Step 6: After the installation is done you should see this screen:

    Restart and the Installation is Done

    The End​

    Hope you enjoyed my guide :)

    Never new this method. Or is it just like ubuntu in windows? Not like the normal dual boot?

    It sets It up in dual boot mode, meaning you get to chose windows or ubuntu when you restart

    I've known how to install programs since I was 5 and had CDROM games... This isnt hard but you did provide ample amounts of pictures and details which boosted my rating to 5/10

    You obviously dont know about installing os's. Normally for something like ubuntu you would have to burn a dvd boot into it configure all the partition the lists goes on. This is much simpler.

    This does tell you how to install Ubuntu, but if you have read other posts in this thread you would know that they did not know about this method, that was the point of this guide, to introduce another method of installing Ubuntu

    And I know how to install Os's using the .iso file, I just provided a simpler way for this OS

    You shouldn't bother triple booting, you'll find you don't need both Vista and XP. Just going with XP and Ubuntu would be my preferred option, anyway.
