how to install Ubuntu easily, dual boot with VISTA / XP / Windows 7 hackpod.net
Exclusive video!
www.hackpod.net Full article at www.hackpod.net Installing Kubuntu/Ubuntu from within Windows is extremely easy. No prior knowledge of how to install or use Ubuntu is required. This works on Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7. The partitions aren't modified, resized, deleted or formatted. It simply creates new files on a chosen Windows partition and uses that. The following videos will focus on demonstrating the tweaking and various things in Kubuntu and Ubuntu. You can obtain the latest Ubuntu ISO from ubuntu.com and the latest Kubuntu from kubuntu.com. If you don't know what CPU you've got, you should just get the 32bit/x86, version, not 64bit/x86_64. Here are the captions I've used in the video (with some additions): 1. Download an Ubuntu or Kubuntu ISO, mount it or burn it to a blank CD 2. Autorun or run wubi.exe 3. Click "Install inside Windows" 4. Choose target drive, install size, a username and a password The installer creates new files on the selected partition. It uses a large file as a "virtual partition" (loopmount) for Ubuntu's filesystem. 5. Reboot 6. Choose Kubuntu/Ubuntu at the boot screen 7. Now it's installing the system into the "virtual partition". It doesn't create new partitions, resize/format existing ones. It uses the files it created inside Windows. That also means you don't need any advanced knowledge to remove it, more about that later. We will demonstrate how Kubuntu/Ubuntu works and looks in another video. 8.

pressed esc and tried the other boot options and they all came to a stop at some point and would go no further. Can anyone help me? I am running windows 7 64bit on my Samsung x460 with 4GB DDR3 ram and a dedicated graphics card. I partitioned my external hard drive and installed it onto that and then changed the boot order in my bios but surely it doesnt have to be installed on my computers hard drive to work? Any help would be great.

@josefzachariassen You likely installed wubi. If you want ubuntu to have more, you should remove wubi, burn ubuntu to cd, and run the installer. Ubuntu will ask you how much you want to resize windows, and you can move the little bar.
