How do you install ubuntu on windows based computer?
A quick and relatively easy method of getting Ubuntu Linux - if
you already have a Windows system and you want to run Ubuntu Linux
on it - is to download Ubuntu and install it by using the Wubi (the
Windows-based Ubuntu Installer) from this Ubuntu web site:
http://wubi-installer.org You can use the Wubi (Windows-based
Ubuntu Installer) to download and install Ubuntu Linux in Windows
and this is very similar to installing any software program in
Windows. One of the great benefits of using the "Wubi Installer" is
that you can also uninstall Ubuntu Linux from Windows if you need
to (in the same way as you uninstall any Windows program). When you
use the "Wubi Installer", you DON'T have to do the following steps
(that you would "typically" need to do) to install the Desktop
version of Ubuntu Linux on an existing Windows system: download a
Linux ISO file burn the Linux ISO file to a Linux CD set up your
computer to boot from CD boot with the Linux CD to run Linux "Live"
and get to the GNOME desktop double-click on the "Install" icon to
start the installation routine run the Ubuntu Linux installation
routine Ubuntu Linux Training Tips: The Wubi Installer is only used
to install the Desktop (not Server) Edition of Ubuntu Linux on an
existing Windows system - and not on a new or used computer system
that doesn't have Windows already installed on it. All of the
"download, burn, setup, and so on" steps listed above will be
described shortly in upcoming sections. The Ubuntu Linux
installation steps described above are required to install the
Desktop and Server Editions (versions) of Ubuntu Linux - either on
a computer system that has Windows (to create a Dual-Boot Windows /
Linux system) or one that doesn't have Windows Ubuntu Linux
Training Tips: Keep in mind that prior to installing Ubuntu Linux
(or any Linux distro) on an existing Windows system, you need to do
a complete backup of your Windows system - twice! Also make sure
that you can use the backups that you have created to restore your
Windows system from backup. (copied from
